QUEERSCAPES: Body Space Sexuality

Friday, November 18, 2005 at the University of Southern California / The ONE National Gay & Lesbian Archives & Saturday, November 19, 2005 at UCLA

Featured speakers include:

Jacqui Alexander

David Eng

Alma Lopez

Catherine Opie

The LA Queer Studies Conference is the successor to last year’s QFac
conference, held at USC and the QGrad conferences held for the last six
years at UCLA. The new format will allow for plenary sessions and
concurrent panels at both institutions. Although we have abadoned the
conference for graduate students only, we hope for substantial graduate
student participation, since one of our goals of the new format is to
encourage the exchange of ideas between graduate students and faculty
scholars.

CALL FOR PAPERS

Faculty, graduate student, and independent scholars are invited to submit proposals for 20-minute presentations. Please send your proposal (not more than 850 words) and a CV (not more than 2 pages) to one of the addresses below. If you would like to organize a panel of three speakers, please feel free to do so.
