Today at 11:59 p.m. is the deadline for submitting a proposal to CCCC’s. For those of you that are not sure what the call for papers is about, you can find it here. I know it’s short notice, but I was busy myself composing a panel proposal regarding ethnic discourses. The panel we (R.C.E.R. & R.S., and myself) proposed examines the possibilities when we combine ethnic discourses with the current body of knowledge in our field. Basically, each of our papers looks at language practices and alternate discursive practices created by unauthorized voices, some of which were forced to compose in oppressed spaces. I think our papers are definitely A-game worthy, but then again, we are CCR; and we are B-A-D. One quick glance at past conferences tells the tale of a doctoral program that always rolls deep at the conference. Yeah, I know it’s bragging-but I can’t help it. I love my program, my professors, and my colleagues. And I can’t wait to see them (if invited to present) next year in Louisville!
