The Editors and Staff at the Independent have a space for NEIU’s community members to share their concerns and opinions through the Letter to the Editor. 

The word count for letters is 1,500 words.

Letters have to include a full name. Letters can include a major if a letter is written by a student at NEIU, or a job position if Alumni or community member. Letters cannot be written anonymously, unless under extreme circumstances.

We reserve the right to edit letters for spelling and grammar. We also reserve the right to reject any letters.

Letters can be submitted to [email protected] or to other editors listed on site.
