A NOTE FROM THE DGS: American Studies is pleased to announce the launching of a new bimonthly Graduate Student Workshop series this spring semester. Grad Students are encouraged to use this opportunity to share their work with each other and with faculty. The series was created to allow students to receive feedback on their work such as, but not limited to, conference papers, practice job talks, parts of chapters, parts of course research papers. Faculty and graduate students are all encouraged to participate.
The first workshop of the series is scheduled for Monday, January 24th, 3:30-5:00pm in the Scott Hall Commons, room 105. Students interested in presenting work at one of the spring workshops should contact Melanie (stein196@umn.edu) by Monday, January 10 and indicate, generally, the type of work you would like to present. One of us will be in contact with those of you who express an interest to finalize scheduling. Once the workshops are set, we will announce the schedule in the Digest, inviting graduate students and faculty.
