Who Can Submit

Change the Status Quo Conference only publishes materials about work conducted under the auspices of Change the Status Quo Conference. For additional information, please contact the editors.

Updating or Removal

A paper may be updated or removed from public view by sending a request to the editors. DigitalCommons@CalPoly is designed to provide long-term, persistent access to deposited items. However, a situation may arise requiring the removal of an item. When this becomes necessary, contact the editors and together we will determine the best course of action.

Author Review

Authors do not have an opportunity to approve papers they have submitted prior to them becoming publicly available on the site; therefore, please be sure that the paper is ready for public distribution.
