Literacy Studies Working Group for Graduate Students
Are you a graduate student interested in cultural, visual, health, or science literacy; communications; reading or writing practices; history of the book; education; new media; equality and equity issues; literacy and language policy; and related questions?
Join other graduate students from around the university for interdisciplinary conversations about literacy and literacy studies. Take advantage of the opportunity to exchange ideas, hear and discuss graduate student research, and develop connections with your peers.
Meet us for a first gathering on Friday, October 14 from 11:30-1:30 at the George Wells Knight House, 105 East 15th Avenue. Victoria Clement, Ph.D. candidate in History, will share a chapter from her dissertation entitled, "Re-Writing the 'Nation': Literacy in Modern Turkmenistan." A lunch of Turkish cuisine will be provided.
If you would like more information or to R.S.V.P for lunch, please contact Kelly Bradbury by October 11th.
This event is sponsored by The Literacy Studies Working Group and The Institute for Collaborative Research and Public Humanities, the College of Humanities, the Colleges of the Arts and Sciences, and the Department of English.
