Call for Papers & Proposals - Texas Tech University :: TechAnnounce

The Women's Studies Program at Texas Tech University proudly announces the 29th Annual All-University Conference on The Advancement of Women in Higher Education, which will take place on the campus of Texas Tech University, Thursday and Friday, April 4-5, 2013. We invite proposals that explore the manifold meanings of movement and change as connected to, created by, and/or caught up in the presence of women's, gender, and identity issues, in both contemporary and historical frameworks.

Interdisciplinary proposals, as well as those from other disciplines and specialty subject areas are welcome. Proposals from professional schools and administrative offices, as well as those from scholarly areas where women have been historically under-represented, including mathematics, the agricultural and natural sciences, and technology and applied sciences, are welcome. We invite students, staff and faculty members in the social and behavioral sciences, the visual and performing arts, the communications fields, and the humanities to present their research. We also issue a special invitation to interested parties from other colleges, universities, and affiliated organizations to present, participate, and/or to attend this conference.

Proposals in the form of research findings, group or single-author projects, and works-in-progress in multiple media are welcome. Individual paper proposals are submitted individually and arranged into session by the review committee. In paper sessions, authors present 10-12 minute papers followed by audience discussion. Panels provide an opportunity for examining specific problems or topics from a variety of perspectives given that they include 3-4 participants. Roundtables typically include a moderator and 4-6 presenters who make brief, informal remarks about a specific idea or project. They allow for extensive discussion and audience participation. Workshops provide an opportunity to exchange information or work on a common problem, project, or shared interest. Workshops are typically experientially oriented, grounded in some sort of women?s and gender studies research agenda, and include brief presentations that allow adequate time for reflective
discussion and interaction.
