Giving an editor role access to publish content type

Issue/Request:
After Alyssa DeChairo did an amazingly fast and impressive job to set up our class note submission page for anon users to access: https://divinity.yale.edu/node/add/alumni-class-note we now need to have one of our student workers in Editor role have access to those submitted, unpublished class notes so he can edit them and switch them to published.
The student is Andrew Franklin. He’s already an Editor in the Alumni section of our site. I thought it would be simple to add him into the same role for the new class note submissions, but i can’t find the right boxes to check or roles to manage to grant him (or other editors) access to edit and publish.
Hi Campbell,
It looks like Andrew Franklin is an admin on the site, so he should be able to access the unpublished nodes and then publish them as needed. Can you have him try to publish one of the unpublished Class Notes?
Best,
Alyssa
Alyssa,
I had to make Andrew an admin temporarily just so he could continue working on the class notes. He’s in the office now (I thought he left earlier when I emailed you). Would you like me to set him back to Editor so we can test his permissions?

Enabled the View Unpublished module and configured the Editor role to be able to view unpublished nodes of type Alumni Class Note.
