Presentation guidelines: Paper and creative writing presentations will be limited to 15-20 minutes, including Q&A. Time limits on performances will be set once we know how many submissions we receive. Posters will be available during the poster session. Visual artwork will remain on display throughout the conference. Special session presentations will be of variable length depending on the number of papers in that session. 

Eligible presenters should consider applying for the MCLA Scholar Designation by April 1st, 2024.
