Some Notes about #Kzoo2019

𝔗here's information up about the schedule of sessions for the International Congress on Medieval Studies. For the Society, important bits are these:


It seems we'll be spending a fair bit of time in Fetzer this go-around, which is not a problem. There are a few notes I need to make about activities:
  • The business meeting presently has two agenda items: elections and panel proposals for #Kzoo2020
    • Nominations for Vice-President (USA) and Social Media Officer can be emailed to me here. I am happy to invite the current holder of those posts, Luke Shelton, to stand for reelection to them, if he desires.
    • Proposals for the 2020 sessions will be taken on the floor at the meeting. Those unable to attend the meeting can make suggestions of panels to me here; they will be brought up during the meeting.
    • Other agenda items can be suggested here; they will be brought up at the meeting.
  • In Session 509, The Legacy of Tolkien's Medievalism in Contemporary Works, "The Two Eyes of the Dragon" will be presented by Isabella Aparecida Leite Nogueira.
  • In Session 539, Victoria L. Holtz Wodzak's "'Lead Kindly Light'" has been withdrawn.
A future post will inquire about expected attendance at #Kzoo2019 so that informal events can be planned and put together. In particular, Sunday afternoons tend to be lonely for those who travel on Mondays, so it might be nice to put something together then.
I hope to see you there!
