CFP: Tenth Annual Great Plains Alliance for Computers and Writing
(GPACW) Conference
Online pedagogies: Making space for social networks
November 10 and 11, 2006 hosted by the English Department of Minnesota
State University, Mankato, MN
Keynote speaker: Michael Day, Northern Illinois University

The 2006 Great Plains Alliance for Computers and Writing Conference will
be held Friday, November 10 and Saturday, November 11, 2006 and will be
hosted by the Department of English at Minnesota State University,
Mankato.

This celebratory symposium on Herman Melville to be
held November 17 and 18, 2006, at the Albany Academy
campus and its environs where Melville lived and
attended school from 1830-31, will consider the
enduring relevance of the author's life, work, and
influence from the perspectives of the humanities,
arts, the sciences, and new technologies. Herman
Melville's work lives on to "tell the tale," because
the questions he posed are the same issues that
inspire contemporary writers, artists, and thinkers
today-the vexed relations between humans and their
environment, racial and social injustices, capitol
punishment, psychological alienation, and the new
frontiers of science and globalism.
