Letters to the editor and commentary/opinion pieces

We invite your comments and suggestions and encourage readers to write letters to the editor or editorials/commentaries. Editorials can be about anything- an opinion you have about Lincoln or the Lincoln community, something that you think needs to be brought to light, etc. Letters to the editor are more specific- they cover the content of The Cardinal Times. These are for if you have a response, criticism or praise to something we published.

Letters to the editor and commentaries are published in our “opinions” page at the discretion of student editors, who have full editorial oversight over what is published on our website and in our newspaper. We have the right and responsibility to edit, change, and condense any editorials for brevity and clarity. We do not permit libel or written defamation of any kind. We will consider submissions from anyone within our community– students, staff members, administrators, parents, etc. Please submit your writing in an email to [email protected].

Please keep your commentaries between 400 and 600 words and letters to the editor under 300 words. If you want to share something longer, email [email protected] (include your name and contact information).

Additionally, if you have a topic that you think needs to be reported or a tip for a story, comments or suggestions for our site, or another inquiry, feel free to share with us below.
