📓 WHAT IS SCHOOL SCHMOOL? We are your friendly guide to navigating university life with a radical twist. We’re ad-free, corporate-free, and put out an agenda with an agenda: connecting the McGill, Concordia, and Tioh’tia:ke communities. We proudly feature content that offers radical, anti-oppressive, and intersectional perspectives, giving voice to BIPOC, Queer and/or Trans individuals.

🔍 WHAT ARE WE LOOKING FOR? This year, School Schmool invites submissions based on the theme of THRIVING. Capitalism and white supremacy leave many of us struggling to to simply get by: what does it mean to grow, to flourish beyond basic survival?

We invite submissions that explore the concept of thriving – whether personal, academic, or social. Share your experiences, insights, resources and creative expressions that inspire/are inspired by growth, resilience, resistance, and empowerment.

You can find prompts to inspire you in the Submission Guidelines in our linktree but feel free to go elsewhere with your medium(s).

• Creative writing like personal essays, short stories and prose/poetry
• Visual artwork in any medium! Illustration, photography, collage, etc.
