HomeClassCrits XIV Conference Logistics

Hello, Everyone,

 

We’re really looking forward to seeing you on campus tomorrow.

 

This is the third and last email I said I would be sending you this week. In this email, I will provide you with quite a bit of important conference related and logistical information. Please read the email all the way through and keep it for future reference.

 

Works in Progress Sessions

 

  • The Works in Progress (“WiPs”) sessions are an important project that ClassCrits organizes at each of our annual conferences. We invite junior scholars to submit papers and create a safe space for them to present their work. We pair each WiP author with a lead commentator who provides comments and we invite audience members to comment as well.

     

  • The entire WiPs program relies on the ClassCrits community to support our junior scholars and colleagues by attending a WiP session.

     

  • The list of WiP authors, the titles of their papers, and the lead commentators are available on the ClassCrits XIV program. Copies of the WiP papers listed by author last name are available here:

  • The WiP sessions are scheduled for Saturday morning at 8 Friday (2/9/24). Each WiP session will have 2 WiP papers. Please pick a WiP session to attend.

     

    Wristbands & Meal Tickets

     

  • Campus Security needs to clear everyone to be on campus. So, we will be giving a wristband to everyone when they check-in for the conference on campus. You will be given a different wristband on Saturday. Unfortunately, this means that the wristbands must be worn all day so that Security recognizes us.

     

  • Everyone who registered for ClassCrits XIV will be given 3 meal tickets—2 for the lunches (Fri & Sat) and 1 for Friday dinner—when they check-in for the conference on campus. The tickets will be collected at both lunches and the dinner.

Link to ShareFile (to upload slides/media)

 

  • You can upload your PowerPoint slides and media to the ShareFile at any 7me before your panel is scheduled.

     

  • The link to the ShareFile folder is here: Sharefile for powerpoint slides
