The Final Countdown!

We're on the Final Countdown! (Yes, you may cue the 80's music.)

Who else is excited for (Re)Scriptae? I know I am!

Don't forget, this is a day and a half event, with three seminar presentations and Rita Wong's inaugural alumni lecture on Friday night. The event starts at 5:30, and there will be a reception (with food and alcohol) following the event. This will be taking place in the lovely Evans Room in the Rosza Centre.

Then, on Saturday, a full day of seminar presentations commences! There will be coffee and goodies provided throughout the day, and a FREE hot buffet lunch at approximately 12. The presentations will be taking place in MacHall, Cassio Rooms A & B.

Rita Wong Article

Hey all,

So you see that special information on the poster? This year is the English Honours Inaugural Alumni Lecture, and this year's special guest to get it all started is a former 504 student, Rita Wong! Find the information here: http://ucalgaryenglishhonours.blogspot.com/p/english-honours-alumni-lecture-rita.html

Rita Wong's lecture is titled "Water as Poetics and Praxis," and she will be presenting after a full panel of 504 students. If that's not enough incentive, there will be a reception following the event. Please come out and support this awesome addition to the Honours Symposium!

Poster!

Look at our pretty poster design! So pretty! And all our sponsors and our blog is on there.

I am really looking forward to (Re)Scriptae. I think that there has been a lot of maturation in all of our papers. Hopefully, we will have abstracts of each of the papers up on the blog!

Keep checking back for more information (to be confirmed on Monday)!
