An afternoon workshop organized by the Columbia Seminar in American Studies
Glenn Hendler and Elizabeth Hutchinson, co-chairs
Saturday, April 10, 2010 1-6pm
The Ella Weed Room (223 Milbank Hall), Barnard College
As the capstone to the Columbia American Studies Seminar’s year-long series of presentations of American Studies work on New York City topics, this afternoon workshop will explore how the field plays out here and how being here shapes the field. The first of our two roundtable discussions will center on the pleasures and challenges of doing American Studies research about New York City; the second will bring together scholars from various American Studies institutions in New York City to discuss their programs and the potential for developing a stronger local American Studies community.Each panel will open with very brief presentations by the panelists, followed by open discussion with one another and with others in attendance. The event is open to all, and is free; however, please RSVP to the seminar rapporteur, Christina Charuhas at cac2166@columbia.edu.
