This is the last workshop of the quarter but the MEHAT Workshop is still accepting proposals for Winter and Spring quarters. Please email me at ebozgan@uchicago.edu with abstracts of no more than 300 words. Drafts of dissertation proposals, chapters, and master’s theses are especially welcome, along with other works in progress.
Warm regards,
Elif Bozgan
2021-2022 MEHAT Workshop Coordinator
