Attending RNF. You might want to consider submitting whatever you have done so far (or what you plan doing) regarding your thesis project as a work in progress for the Research Network Forum at the 4Cs conference. Proposals are due by October 31 (see call for proposals), so you have some time to think about it. Attending the conference will give you a chance to meet many of the theorists we have been reading -and to attend panel presentations on topics connected to your research - or just anything you are interested in. Presenting your work at RNF will give you a chance to network with other researchers in your area - and to receive (and give) feedback.

On October 19, 2012 at 2PM at the CUNY Graduate Center English Ph.D. Program (365 Fifth Avenue @ 34th Street, Room 4/409), the CUNY Mina Shaughnessy Speaker Series will present Sondra Perl (Lehman College & CUNY Graduate Center) and Charles Schuster (University of Wisconsin) in their discussion Composing a Life in Composition: A Story in Revision. They will reflect upon their coming-of-age in the world of composition and rhetoric in the 1970s. From their insiders' views from the past 40 years, they describe their development as scholars and writers while tracing movements in comp/rhet. As leaders in this ever-evolving field, they illustrate how social and intellectual currents in this discipline shaped their careers and sustained an enduring friendship. Please join us for any or all of this event-filled day, and share these notifications with any colleagues who you think may be interested.
Also on that date prior to the speaker series, the WPA Metropolitan Affiliate will meet in the same place. During this meeting, we will discuss the affiliate’s plans in the upcoming year as well as other issues that concern this evolving group. Prior to the official meeting, people will meet for a get-together (buy-your-own) lunch hour around 12:30PM in a near-by location (TBA), and then we will convene for the more official meeting at the CUNY GC English Program lounge at 2PM. Please join us for lunch and the WPA Metropolitan Affiliate meeting on October 19.
So if you are in the NYC area on October 19th, please join us for this event-filled day.
