As I'm sure many of you are aware, Kelly and Chris have graduated, both from LMU and from their writing duties on Hackcollege. As with any school, it's necessary to replace our graduating seniors with a new freshman class to keep pumping out quality content for all of you. If you're a strong writer with an engaging voice, possess a keen interest in our brand of undergraduate efficiency, and are a current college student (duh), then you may be just what we're looking for.
If you're interested in becoming a writer for us, shoot us an email at dear@hackcollege.com. Be sure to include the following in the email:
- Some contact info (Skype, preferred email, cell phone)
- Your current school and expected graduation date
- A resume (don't worry about fixing it up or anything, it's not really that necessary)
- Ten story ideas you think would work on Hackcollege
- A fleshed-out, spit-shined, ready-to-publish guest post on one of those ten ideas
Submissions are due by Saturday, June 26 at noon Eastern time. Can't wait to hear from you guys!

How long would you prefer the guest post to be?
It varies, however long you think it should be. Look around the site to get an idea. :)
Do we get paid?
@Boots
HackCollege writers volunteer their time. However, the job comes with many perks and opportunities which in my opinion are more valuable than a few cheques.
Wish I had a talent for writing...looking forward to reading all the new material, though :)
Hi!!
I'd love to help out...I do feel like I can do a good job for you guys. The thing is....I'm mexican, so I go to college here, which is why I hesitate about sending you the e-mail and stuff...let me know and if that's not a problem then I'll tryout.
Thanks..
Luke's Canadian, we welcome all :)
I guess i can contribute to the article being a second year engineering student here in India. Will think of some cool ideas for articles. I have enough experience writing on tech blogs etc.

So what kind of perks are we talking about?
So when can we expect a response on our applications?
