Good Morning,

I hope this email finds you well. I am hoping you might be able to share
this call for papers with your graduate students. UC San Diego's department
of literature is putting on an in-person graduate student conference and we
would love to invite you all into the conversation. I've attached our call
for papers. Abstracts are due Mar. 9th.

We're also excited to announce our keynote speaker Dr. Vetri Nathan who
will give their keynote address titled "We Need a Multispecies
Paradigm-Shift: Naturalcultural Studies in a Transformed World" on Friday
May 15th. You can find their bio and more information on the conference
here: https://literature.ucsd.edu/news-events/grad-conference.html.

We look forward to hearing from your grads and are excited to share this
call for papers!
