Hi everyone-- I would like to extend a personal invitation to two events that we are trying out this quarter. CSW will hold two Works in Progress Symposia that will feature the research projects of this year's recipients of Faculty Development grants. Each faculty recipient will speak for about five minutes on their project, then we will open the discussion up to panelists commenting on each others' work and the audience responding to the projects. These symposia bring together an interdisciplinary panel speaking to an interdisciplinary audience to see if we could generate substantive cross-disciplinary dialogue. These events will also have the related benefit of giving the audience a sampling of feminist and gender related research throughout the university, as well as acquainting everyone with UCLA scholars and their research that they may not know. Please join us for these special symposia. I look forward to seeing you at these Works in Progress symposia. All the best, Kathleen Kathleen A.
