CSCA 2017 Call for Papers Reminder: Kenneth Burke Society

Hello, Kenneth Burke Society Interest Group members. Hope everyone’s Fall semester is off to a great start. I wanted to remind you that the deadline for submitting panels or papers to CSCA is just about a month away.


 


Call for Papers and Panels

 2017 Central States Communication Association (CSCA)

Annual Convention in Minneapolis, Minnesota

March 16-18, 2017

Create

The Kenneth Burke Society invites the submission of competitive papers, panels, roundtable discussions, and innovative programming for the 2017 CSCA convention in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Submissions should draw upon the work of Kenneth Burke as a means of pursuing humanistic and social scientific inquiry. We especially encourage members to address issues related to the convention theme of Create. In terms of panels, preference will be given to those with panelists representing multiple institutions rather than representing a single institution. A top paper award will be given to the top student and faculty submissions.

Papers: Only completed papers will be accepted. Papers must include a title and a brief abstract. Graduate students should type “STUDENT” on the upper right-hand corner of the title page.  If the paper will be a graduate student debut, please type “DEBUT STUDENT” on the upper right- hand corner of the title page. To be considered a student debut paper, (1) the author must be a graduate or undergraduate student, (2) the paper must have single authorship, and (3) the paper must be the author’s first paper to be presented at CSCA. Indicate if author(s) are CSCA members. Author names and any identifying information must be removed prior to submission. A Competitive Paper Submission Form must be submitted along with the paper. This form is located on the CSCA website: www.csca-net.org.

Panels: To propose a discussion or paper panel, please include a 300-500 word description and rationale for the entire panel. In addition to the overall rationale for the panel, each presenter should include a 100-150 word abstract of her or his research. Discussion panels and paper panels must be submitted using the respective forms located on the CSCA website: www.csca-net.org.

Submissions must be received by October 3, 2016. All technology requests must be made at the time of submission. Please send submissions electronically using Microsoft Word to the following:
