call for papers

Brett and Sarah and I are trying to put together a panel for the undergraduate research conference this spring. If you're enrolled as an undergrad and think you'll have a paper to present by April let us know.

Putting together a panel will allow us to create a more coherent and productive discussion following our presentations. No one will be tossed into a panel of unrelated papers, and folks who come to hear us speak will likely stay for all of our papers, instead of hopping up half-way through and not contributing to Q&A.

So. That said, our 'topic' is still rather broad. We're thematizing neoliberalism, public space, and development, especially as articulated through story-telling, feminist theory, and the urban landscape.

Abstracts are do 17 November. 250-350 words. Please contact one of us ASAP if you want to present. mcdougal-webber [dot] 1 [at] osu.edu

About

This blog serves as a transparent point of discourse for You Are Here--a Columbus collective that grew out of the Comparative Studies Undergraduate Group at the Ohio State University. It consists of people from all academic and social backgrounds with an emphasis on social theory. Most succinctly put, it is creative scholarship in affect--whether it be from academia, popular culture, art, language, or personal observation. The ideas expressed in this blog are by no means reached by consensus and do not necessarily reflect those of other members. The comments doubly so. Feel free to critique, question, or agree with any views expressed. You don't have to reside in or be familiar with the city of Columbus. As far as we're concerned, you are here.
