It is in the Music Room from 4 - 5 and will be followed afterwards by the General Membership Meeting of all bargaining unit members. <div> <br></div><div>This one is the first of the year and so a great way to see, first, how these meetings run (and why it's important to attend!) and, second, who's representing you on the executive committees. More importantly, at the GMM we will most likely be discussing plans against the anti-labour legislation being handed down from McGuinty's finance minister. This is a great way to get in on the ground floor of what will become a very important struggle.</div> Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10340506189956017564noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2530299814538033276.post-74476526417248679962012-10-09T13:41:00.001-07:002012-10-09T13:41:21.458-07:00Fall 2012 Medusa Seminar<div style="direction: ltr;font-family: Tahoma;color: #000000;font-size: 10pt;"><font color="black" face="Tahoma" size="2"><span style="font-size:10pt;" dir="ltr"><font face="Times New Roman" size="2"><span style="font-size:16px;"><font face="Tahoma" size="2"><span style="font-size:10pt;">D<font face="Segoe UI,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif">ear Fellow Graduate Students,</font><br> <br> <font face="Segoe UI,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif">This is a call for papers for the </font><font face="Segoe UI,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif"><b>Fall 2012 Medusa Seminar,</b></font><font face="Segoe UI,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif"> which will take place on</font><font face="Segoe UI,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif"><b> Friday, November 2nd</b></font><font face="Segoe UI,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif"> from 9:30 to 12:30 am in the 2nd floor conference room. Mark your calendars!!</font><br> <br> <font face="Segoe UI,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif">In case you've never been to a Medusa event, it is a seminar series put on by UofT Anthropology grad students, for each other. It is meant to provide the opportunity for us to present our work to our peers, and is an excellent opportunity both to solicit their feedback and to practice formal presentation skills. As you all know, there are a number of important anthropology conferences coming up, so the November Medusa seminar is especially intended to provide an opportunity for presenters to practice their presentations. That being said, you are welcome to submit an abstract and to present your work even if you are not planning to present at one of of the upcoming conferences.</font><br> <br> <font face="Segoe UI,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif">There a few changes to the format of Meduse this year. The November event will feature panel presentations on specific themes as opposed to sub-disciplines. So, there is the potential to have papers from different disciplines on the same panel, and you can choose to attend the panels which are of interest to you.</font><br> <br> <font face="Segoe UI,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif">Please submit your abstracts electronically to Kate Rice (kathleen.rice@mail.utoronto.ca) by </font><font face="Segoe UI,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif"><b>Wednesday October 17th</b></font><font face="Segoe UI,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif">. Abstracts should be no longer than 250 words. Finally, we need moderators too, so if you are interested in facilitating a panel, please let either Kate or Mathew Gagne know.</font><br> <br> <font face="Segoe UI,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif">Also, the format for the Spring 2013 Medusa seminar will be substantially different from previous years. It will take place on Thursday the 21st of March and will be an all-day colloquium. Details to follow.</font><br> <br> <font face="Segoe UI,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif">Send your papers!
