Editorial team and standards

These are the people responsible for Students Life coverage and the standards used to research, edit, update and correct it.

Editorial team

Editorial standards

Our goal is to reduce the cost of understanding college life before asking a student to act or buy. Editors remain responsible for every published claim, recommendation and correction.

Research, writing and AI

  1. Information discoveryAI tools may assist with information discovery and outline development. AI output is not treated as a source.
  2. Source verificationEditors check factual claims against authoritative or cited sources, including official campus, government and brand pages when those sources control the answer.
  3. Human accountabilityAn editor reviews every article and remains responsible for the final framing, recommendations and published content.
  4. People-first purposeWe publish to answer a real student decision, not to fill a keyword target or manufacture apparent expertise.
