<Title>The 2018 Midwest Interdisciplinary Graduate Conference</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <div><strong>MIGC 2018</strong></div>
    <div><strong>Call for Papers</strong></div>
    <div><strong>Deadline: December 1, 2017</strong></div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>Urban development. Access to information technologies. Voting districts. Drone warfare. The asymmetrical identifies a lack of equivalence that is increasingly characteristic of contemporary economic, material, political, and visual relations. Asymmetry is often at the surface of history: where sustained and repeated practices of inequality manifest as image. The asymmetrical is also an aesthetic that registers imbalance and refuses a call to order.  The 2018 Midwest Interdisciplinary Graduate Conference (MIGC) asks how asymmetry and the asymmetrical can be used to interpret sites of conflict and complicate traditional ideas of equivalence, balance, and organization.</div>
    <div> </div>
    <div>Knowing where images come from and how they come to exist matters. As Lisa Parks contends, equality is deeply entangled with the materiality of media systems. Her rich interdisciplinary work on televisual infrastructures and drone surveillance suggests that media systems configure cultural imaginaries of the global, the immaterial, and the biopolitical  ̶  imaginaries that often carry uneven distributions of value, sensation, and equivalence. However, while media systems may be centrally owned by nation-states or corporations, at their uneven edges they are “imagined, arranged, and adopted in different ways by people or ‘end-users’” (Signal Traffic, 11). The uneven and the local are often the sites where media and infrastructure are felt as matter and matter most.</div>
    <div> </div>
    <div>We invite emerging scholars in the humanities, arts, and humanistic sciences to present work that broadens our current understanding of asymmetry and how it engages with culture, theory, and society. What are critical examples of asymmetrical development? How does the asymmetrical work in literature, the visual arts, and performance? What theoretical frameworks inform our understandings of the asymmetrical? How does asymmetry draw attention to patterns of inequality? When should we strive for asymmetry?</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>
    <div>Potential topics include, but are not limited to:</div>
    <div>         </div>
    <div><ul>
    <li>Studies of infrastructure and public development</li>
    <li>The aesthetics and politics of drone use</li>
    <li>Race and ethnicity in American politics</li>
    <li>Geography and geographic information systems</li>
    <li>Contemporary wealth distribution</li>
    <li>Valuations of affective labor</li>
    <li>Imperfect and experimental cinema</li>
    <li>Postmodern literature</li>
    <li>Dadaism in the 21st century</li>
    <li>Militarization of daily life</li>
    <li>Studies in political activism and community organizing</li>
    <li>Representation of LGBTQ+ communities</li>
    <li>Environmental regulations and climate change</li>
    <li>Asymmetry and philosophy</li>
    </ul></div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>Please email 300-word submissions for individual papers, panels, roundtables, or other formats to <a href="mailto:themigc@gmail.com">themigc@gmail.com</a> by December 1st, 2017.

<Title>English Faculty Highlighted in UMBC Magazine</Title>

    <div class="html-content">The Department of English is pleased to announce that two of our beloved faculty members have been highlighted in the recent edition of <em>UMBC Magazine.</em><div><br></div>
    <div>The magazine features a profile of Deborah Rudacille, who is currently "neck deep in the studies and personal stories that will--she hopes--turn into a book or series of articles about substance use disorders as heritable diseases that affect the whole family, not just those who are addicted to alcohol or drugs." Her work is supported by the Guggenheim grant that she recently received for her writing. </div>

<Title>English Alumnus' GRIT-X Talk at UMBC Homecoming</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <div>English alumnus Sean Pang ’09 delivered a GRIT-X talk during UMBC’s Homecoming in which he recounted his “fortune of misfortunes,” including the culture shock and language barrier upon his immigration to the U.S. as a small child as well as poverty and eviction during his undergraduate studies. When he started teaching in Baltimore City after graduating from UMBC, he was the only Asian person in the room, but his background of challenges helped him connect with students. “When they see me come into the classroom, with a smile on my face, with passion, and dedication, and kindness, they see hope,” he shares, “hope that they can make something better from their lives.”</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>Pang, who was the Washington Post’s 2017 Teacher of the Year, had three recommendations for audience members. First, he said, be kind. In kindergarten, a classmate gave him a plastic dinosaur that Pang keeps to this day—it was the first act of kindness he remembers from a peer in the U.S. Second, “Try everything, because that will lead you to find your passion.” And once you find it, “use it to give hope, because hope is the greatest gift you can give.”</div>
    <div><br></div>

    <div><br></div>
    <div>Sean Pang’s talk is also available at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jFp6OLKSbJM&amp;list=PLnj_pHJHgqkX1s5m_fJxznO-hJNC1aiDm&amp;index=5">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jFp6OLKSbJM&amp;list=PLnj_pHJHgqkX1s5m_fJxznO-hJNC1aiDm&amp;index=5</a>. He discusses “finding his passion” with English around the fourteen-minute mark.</div>
