The Contemporary Literature Colloquium welcomes suggestions for topics and speakers. If you are interested in organizing a colloquium roundtable, panel, discussion, or lecture, please contact Thom Dancer.
Monthly dissertation workshops provide graduate students in the dissertation stage with an opportunity to present their written work for critically engaged peer review with graduate students and faculty working in contemporary literature. Participants are encouraged to attend regularly. If you are a dissertator who is interested in participating in or presenting a work-in-progress for the CLC Dissertator Workshop, please contact Brian Williams with a brief description of your work/project.
