LiLaC: Literatures, Languages, and Cultures in the 21st Century

When
2 to 7 p.m., Sept. 27, 2019

The Center for Educational Resources in Culture, Language and Literacy (CERCLL) at the University of Arizona will be leading a series of on campus events and professional learning communities for faculty, administrators and graduate students in language, literature and culture departments at the University of Arizona to explore today’s best practices and models for foreign language, literature and culture departments.

We are hosting the launch event on Friday, September 27, 2019 (2:00-5:00 pm). And we want you to join us! The event will feature world-renowned speakers who have a record of innovative program development. In a roundtable discussion, the invited speakers will each share transdisciplinary initiatives they have lead on their home campuses. This will be followed by breakout sessions in which participants can focus on themes of specific significance to them. Through these conversations, we will identify future directions to explore as a campus. The event will conclude with a reception from 5:00-7:00 pm.

Featured speakers:

  • Charlotte Melin (Professor of German, University of Minnesota-Twin Cities)
  • Gillian Lord (Professor and Chair of the Department of Spanish and Portuguese Studies, University of Florida)
