The workshop and panels are intended to offer students relevant feedback on their research while encouraging them to take their seminar and/or symposium papers to the next level and ready them for publication.
In tandem with the yearly campus theme sponsored by the Cultural and Intellectual Community Program Council (CICPC), the call for papers will invite MA students and alumni to submit 300-word abstracts for 15-20 minute presentations on the topic of Poetic Justice.
