@AlejandroARiera Thank you so much for sharing the call!

From my alma mater…

(As this program is part of the 2023-24 academic year, current first-year students are eligible and encouraged to apply.)

The first information session for the Summer 2023 Ireland program is this evening at 5 pm in Leighton 304. The program will be co-led by Michael Mcnally of the Religion dept. and Arnab Chakladar of English. Come find out more.

The English Department is pleased to present a lecture by Kris Deffenbacher ('91) on the place of genre and narrative in the historic repeal of Ireland's 8th amendment. Please join us in the Athenaeum tomorrow (Tuesday, October 11) at 5 pm.

The English department's comps symposium is tomorrow. We are very excited to be able to once again do the symposium in person. If you're around come by the Weitz tomorrow and check out the wonderful work our seniors did this year.

Jesmyn Ward delivered a wonderful convocation address at @CarletonCollege today and was a joy to talk to as well.

The English department is very excited to be the host of this special convocation address this Friday in the @CarletonCollege chapel at 10.50 am.

A great turnout at the excellent reading by Jaswinder Bolina last evening. We had booked Boliou 104 to allow for more spacing than in the Athenaeum and then it almost filled up. We have clearly all missed gathering in rooms together to listen to writers read from their work.

We are happy to say that the Jaswinder Bolina reading/talk that was cancelled due to snow in Feb is happening this evening. Despite the forecast rain, we hope to see many of you in Boliou 104 at 6 pm for what promises to be a very stimulating hour. A book signing will follow.

@jnyrose @CarletonCollege Will do!

Also if someone @SecondLaird or @CarletonCollege could pass on my thanks, that would be ace (class of 01, I am old).

This was my advisor for my final dissertation (Christina Rossetti for the win) &she wrote a sentence in a recommendation that gave me the courage to apply for my first job in Manchester. These relationships matter so much. carleton.edu/news/stories/p… @CarletonCollege @SecondLaird

However, the event is not cancelled, merely rescheduled for Tuesday, April 5. Look for more details on that in a few weeks.

We regret to inform that the talk and reading by Jaswinder Bolina that was scheduled for 5 pm tomorrow has been called off due to the likelihood of travel disruption from the forecast winter storm.

Please read this conversation with Jaswinder Bolina who will be presenting a talk/reading on Tuesday, Feb 22 in Boliou 104. carleton.edu/english/miscel…
