The Society for Cinema and Media Studies is proud to announce its support for a new venture, the Society for Cinema and Media Studies Undergraduate Conference. Previously conducted under the title of the Midwest Undergraduate Film and Television Conference and held only at the University of Notre Dame, this new incarnation will rotate across multiple universities on an annual basis, so as to enable wider access to students across North America. It will carry the SCMS imprimatur to reflect the organization’s strong support for undergraduate education in cinema and media studies.
We ask that you tell your best
undergraduate students about the First Annual Society for Cinema and Media
Studies Undergraduate Conference. It will be once again held at the University
of Notre Dame on April 11-12, 2013. Next year it will move to the University of
Oklahoma.
Undergraduate students are invited to
propose papers appropriate for a 20-minute presentation on any aspect of cinema
and media history, criticism, or theory. Interested students must submit a
proposal form, which can be found at http://ftt.nd.edu/ftt-events/society-for-cinema-and-media-studies-undergraduate-conference/.
Completed proposals should be sent by
email to JoAnn.Norris.9@nd.edu
at the University of Notre Dame. Please write "SCMS Undergrad Conference
2013" in the subject heading.
