Three Powerful Avenues for

Members’ Expression/Publication

The exceptional talents, knowledge, and experience of Delta Kappa Gamma members are among the
Society’s most important resources as our key women educators seek to foster professional and personal
growth, promote excellence in education, and make an impact worldwide. With the recent introduction of
the Leadership Discovery Centre, DKG now has a powerful troika of avenues for members to share their
expertise and inspire others: the Centre; the Bulletin publication (journal and magazine formats); and the
Arts Gallery.
In its 91st year of publication, the Bulletin publishes original academic articles in its journal format
(subtitled International Journal for Professional Educators) and more personal and practical articles in its
magazine format (subtitled Collegial Exchange). Established in 2010, the Arts Gallery features members’
works in visual media, videos, writing, and music. Launched in late 2022 and now formalized with
committee direction as of the 2024 International Convention, the Leadership Discovery Centre encourages
members to submit “leadership media”—videos, PowerPoint presentations, training plans, articles, and
book reviews—to promote exploration of leadership topics.
Because some submission categories overlap, members who wish to be published via any of these three
venues should consider the emphasis of each when making a submission. Note, however, that the chair of
the new committee for the Centre, the chair of the jury for the Gallery, and the editor of the Bulletin are
committed to collaboration to showcase members’ contributions. This means that the three entities will
direct and redirect submissions as needed to ensure that the integrity/quality of each avenue is maintained.
For example, an original article regarding leadership submitted to the Centre will be forwarded
for primary review by the Editorial Board for the Bulletin
(either format) and subsequently may become part of the
resources in the Centre based on a specific assessment
of its relevance to leadership. A video of a speech
about leadership submitted to the Centre will receive
primary review by the Arts & Humanities Jury in its
filmmaking category and may then be suggested
for inclusion in the Centre. In a similar way,
the Editorial Board and Arts & Humanities
Jury will alert the Centre regarding items
that may be pertinent to its goals and/or
suggest that members reframe submissions
to align with the Centre’s focus.
Members’ talents, knowledge, and
experience—a powerful three-
fold gift to the profession—
have three powerful avenues
for expression!
