One Editorial Board Member's Experience.
- Authors
Hill, George E.
- Abstract
This article presents author's description regarding experiences that a person can gain from three years' service being a member of the editorial board of a professional journal. This is author's own experience who has been working for the Personnel and Guidance Journal for the last three years. He elaborates some of his experiences that have impressed him about this work during the period of 1966 to 1969. According to him, it is extremely difficult to produce a journal, month after month, which meets the expectations and the felt needs or such a large and diversified group as the total membership of the American Personnel and Guidance Association, with its numerous divisions, the greatly varied settings and job demands of its many members, and the wide ranges in education and scholarly sophistication of its readers. Based on this view, it is concluded that a professional journal for such a varied group. if it seeks mainly to satisfy its readers, will fail to perform its most important function.
