The Workshop on the Comparative History of Women, Gender, and Sexuality (WCHWGS, or "witch-y wigs,") is currently seeking faculty and graduate student work for the Fall 2018 schedule. Submitted work could include conference papers, dissertation chapters, syllabi, article drafts, prospectuses, or any other kind of work in progress that addresses the history of women, gender, and/or sexuality in some fashion, and we welcome work at all stages of the writing process.
Once you are on the schedule, we will ask you for a copy of your work a week before the date you are set to present so we may distribute it to our list-serv. At the workshop itself, which is normally held on Fridays from 3:30-5:00pm, a faculty member will open the discussion on your paper with a comment. After the comment, you will have room to respond, and then discussion will open up to workshop members.
If you are interested in sharing a paper or other work, or serving as a faculty commentator this fall, please contact Ai Miller (mill7176@umn.edu), Emma Snowden (snowd030@umn.edu), or Sarah Chambers (chambers@umn.edu), this year's coordinators of WCHWGS, or through this account (wchwgs1@umn.edu). If you'd like to be added to the list-serv and attend the workshop, please also feel free to reach out.
