are small-group (maximum 15 individuals) discussion sessions for which
participants prepare in advance of the conference. In previous years,
preparation has involved shared readings, pre-circulated ''position
papers'' by seminar leaders and/or participants, and other forms of
pre-conference collaboration. We particularly invite proposals for
seminars designed to advance emerging lines of inquiry and
research/teaching initiatives within cultural studies broadly construed.
We also invite seminars designed to generate future collaborations among
conference attendees, particularly through the formation of working
groups. A limited number of seminars will be selected. Once the seminars
are chosen, a call for participants in those seminars will be announced
on the CSA webpage and listserv. Those who wish to participate in a
particular seminar must apply the seminar leader(s) directly by
*April 30, 2016. *Seminar leader(s) will be responsible for providing
the seminar coordinator with a confirmed list of participants (names,
affiliations, and email addresses required) for inclusion in the
conference program no later than *May 10, 2016*. Seminars will be marked
in the conference programs as either closed to non-participants or open
to all conference attendees. Proposals for seminars should include: the
title of the seminar; the name, title, affiliation, and contact
information of the seminar leader(s); and a description of the issues
and questions that will be raised in discussion and an overview of the
work to be completed by participants in advance of the seminar (<500
words). Individuals interested in participating in (rather than leading)
a seminar should consult the list of seminars and the instructions for
signing up for them, to be available on the conference website by
*April 20.*

Please direct questions about seminars

Please note that for them to run at the conference, seminars accepted
for inclusion by the program committee must garner a minimum of 8
participants, including the seminar leader(s).

*The deadline for ALL seminar participation applications is April 30, 2016.*

Details about all the seminars that will be hosted at the 2016 CSA
Conference will be available online before April 20, 2016.

Thank you,
