High-Quality: All pieces that will be published in the Confluence must meet a high enough standard to be included. This includes: The quality of the content Good reasons for the piece being written Grammar, spelling, basic editing, etc. Honesty: We want to maintain a standard that all pieces published should be fact-checked, o1 come from a place of experience. We look tc spread the truth, but also not offend anyone in the process, Reliability: We at the Confluence look to publish the magazine bi-weekly. That’s right, we will publish two issues of the Confluence each month start- ing in September. Along with this, the responsibility of my job is to look at everything sent to me and approve it for publishing. If anything was to gain controversy it would lay on myself and the person who wrote the article- poem-story. If you disagree with something, feel free to come to me and we can talk about why it was published. My personal belief is that everyone has their own voice, and should use it. This would encourage healthy discus- sion amongst us as a community. However, there will be no tolerance of any sorts towards hate-speech and excessive vulgarity. We have morals too, you know?
