Opinion, on the record
Single-column commentary. These pieces are personal views from the SCUTA desk, not research reports and not solicitations.

Opinion: a week of stand-asides and scratches can be the most professional week on the calendar, even if it will never trend on a feed.

Commentary on evaluation accounts: they are designed constraints. Treating them as a referendum on your talent is how people press.
The Unfashionable Case for Small Size
Personal view: most students are not under-levered. They are over-entertained. Small size is how the playbook gets a fair sample.

A commentary on process records versus public performance — and why SCUTA treats a journal as infrastructure, not as a diary you open when you feel like it.
