In an era defined by rapid social, technological, and environmental change, the concept of (Re)generation offers a vital framework for reimagining general education. This panel invites scholars, educators, and academic leaders to explore how the principles of (Re)generation can revitalize curricula, pedagogy, and institutional practices in ways that not only respond to the challenges of the present but also prepare us for the future.

Twenty years ago, David Eng, Jack Halberstam, and the late José Esteban Muñoz asked “What’s Queer about Queer Studies Now?” in a special issue of Social Text. With this question, they invited the field’s overhaul through considerations of race, debates about temporality/futurity, and interrogations of the transnational assemblages that then shaped refugee and migrant life. At the same time the special issue deconstructed the privileged subjects of queer studies, it echoed, furthered, and made space for field-defining works in queer Latinx studies: Muñoz’s Disidentifications (1999), Juana Maria Rodríguez Queer Latinidad (2003), Richard T.

This is a call for chapter proposals on the FX Channel's 2023 docuseries "Dear Mama: The Saga of Afeni and Tupac Shakur" for the FX Reader, an anthology of FX's best original TV series, which is under a two-volume book contract with Syracuse University Press.  The docuseries explores the lives and legacies of Tupac Shakur and his mother Afeni, who was a Black Panther Party activist.

From Lisa Barlow’s claim of being “Mormon 2.0,” to Meredith Marks’ immortal declaration about “the rumors and the nastiness,” The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City has captured imaginations far beyond Utah. The show is at once high drama, cultural export, and local funhouse mirror—inviting us to think seriously (and playfully) about how Salt Lake City is represented, interpreted, and mythologized.

This event will bring together fans, critics, scholars, and community members for a day of lively discussion, re-enactment, and reflection. We are less interested in the strict application of academic methods than in thoughtful, stimulating insights rooted in local culture, fandom, and appreciation.

Divination, Witchcraft & the Occult *SPECIAL TOPIC*

CALL FOR PRESENTATIONS
Popular Culture Association Conference
8-11 April 2026
Atlanta, GA, US

The broad interest in divination, witchcraft, and the occult has been part of popular culture for centuries. Scholars’ discomfort with the topic is often palpable: they tend to focus on intersections that feel more legitimate, e.g. legal ramifications (laws against occult practice, witch trials etc), or archival documents, or simply sticking to fictional accounts.

Call For Papers: “Steinbeck in Times of Crisis”

March 11-13th, 2026
Arizona State University, Tempe, AZ

The International Society of Steinbeck Scholars invites proposals related to the ways in which John Steinbeck’s work offers insights into human experience during moments of crisis—including personal, social, cultural, political, or ecological. We seek contributions that broaden understanding of how Steinbeck's writing addresses such themes as conflict, collaboration, resolution, resilience, and survival, and how these resonate in today's world.

Robert Louis Stevenson’s Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde is one of the most adapted, parodied, and referenced works of Gothic fiction. Even those who have never read the novella know the “story,” or at least the twist: Henry Jekyll becomes Edward Hyde to live a double life, disconnected from societal pressures and expectations. Many, if not all, of these media adaptations add, edit, or remove elements from the story, making it a hybrid narrative, one part Stevenson’s and one part the adapter’s.

Future Spectralities: Raising Ghosts, Conjuring Black Futurity

Edited by Viola Marchi (University of Bern) and Marco Petrelli (University of Pisa)

If, as Dionne Brand writes, “Black experience in any modern city or town in the Americas is a haunting” (25), what does it mean to be haunted—and to haunt—in African American literature and thought? The aim of the proposed collection is to explore the many ghosts and forms of spectrality that populate twenty-first century Black literary, artistic, and theoretical production, their functions, and the relation they entertain with the dimension of the future.

The CUNY Graduate Center French Department invites submissions for our Spring 2026 student conference on the theme of “étrangeté.”

Étrangeté evades easy translation. It encompasses "strangeness," "foreignness," and "otherness," offering expansive variability. Etrangeté inhabits both the self and the other. It arises through external judgment and internal reflection alike. It can be unsettling, absurd, and beautiful.

In moments of rupture—whether personal, political, or planetary—narratives frequently stage ethical crises that challenge and destabilize established frameworks of responsibility, relationality, and judgment. How do literature and film illuminate the fragile, often invisible networks of moral obligation that bind us to one another, particularly when these ties are strained by trauma, contingency, or crisis?
