We’re excited about the “Making Literature” Conference at Taylor University (February 26-28, 2015), and we want to make sure that a group of Ball State English students presents (and represents!) at the conference.

This is an amazing opportunity to share your work, hear great readings from amazing guest speakers (Jessie van Eerden, Angela Shannon, Scott Russell Sanders, Miho Nonaka), and add a great line to your resume.

Creative and critical work are both accepted.

Sponsorships Available

Further, we are giving you the chance to attend the conference and HAVE IT PAID FOR!

The English Department will sponsor 7 students to attend—we will pay for conference registration ($75) and transportation back and forth to the conference all three days for the 7 selected students!

Here’s what you need to do:

• Send in a proposal for a creative or scholarly work to the conference by December 15, 2014.
• Once your proposal is accepted by the conference, submit it to assistant chair, Prof. Cathy Day (RB 297; cday@bsu.edu) for consideration.
• The 7 best proposals will be accepted for full funding by the Department.

So, go forth and apply!
