✎ Draft wording for the pitch guidance. Replace or approve before launch.

We publish op-eds by current Oxford students: sharp, funny, considered or contrarian, as long as it's worth reading. You can write under your own name or anonymously.

Two ways to pitch

  • Send us a DM on Instagram with your idea in a few lines.
  • Use the form below. Tell us the idea and how to reach you, and we'll be in touch if it's a fit.

What makes a good pitch

  • One clear argument you can make in 600 to 1,200 words.
  • Why it matters to Oxford students, and why now.
  • No attacks on named or identifiable individuals.

About your details. Unlike overheards, pitches aren't anonymous to us: we need a way to reply. We only use your contact details to discuss your pitch. See our privacy notice.

What's the argument, and why should anyone read it? A paragraph or two is plenty.
