Call For Participation - Rocky Mountain Rhetoric Symposium

Call For Participation - Rocky Mountain Rhetoric Symposium

We are thrilled to announce the inaugural Rocky Mountain Rhetoric Symposium! The Symposium will bring together exceptional and diverse rhetorical scholars and students from across the Mountain West to build a more robust community among our institutions, celebrate the richness and interdisciplinarity of rhetorical studies, and encourage scholarly conversations. Rhetoric Society of America President and Brigham Young University Professor Gregory Clark will give the keynote address, and small-group workshops, topical seminars, and professional development classes for both graduate and undergraduate students will follow. Workshops and seminars will be be led by a number of nationally renowned rhetoricians. The event will be hosted by the University of Utah's Departments of Communication and Writing and Rhetoric Studies, as well as Utah's student RSA chapter Rhetorica Elevada.

There are several ways to participate in the Symposium. Different sessions will be held concurrently throughout the day. Undergraduate and beginning graduate students may find the professional development and topical seminars most useful, while more advanced graduate students are encouraged to participate in writing-in-progress workshops. Faculty and graduate students from the Mountain West region and beyond are welcome.

The registration page can be found at the following link - http://bit.ly/2bc7JrM. If you have any questions, please email Dr. Jonathan Stone at jon.stone@utah.edu. We look forward to seeing you there!
