Julia Adams and Phil Gorski would like to invite all those who are
interested to join us on Saturday January 24, 2009, for a one day Center for Comparative Research conference focussed on graduate student work.

Our particular aims are to let CCR Fellows and prospective Fellows learn
more about each others' major projects, whether dissertation-related or
freestanding papers-in-progress, and to give all interested grads more
practice in and feedback on styles of professional presentation.

The conference will take place at the Quinnipiack Club
(http://www.qclub.org) on 221 Church Street. We will provide
breakfast, lunch, a nice dinner & of course loads of coffee.

We envision several panels of short (about 15 minute) student
presentations followed by faculty discussants and collective Q & A.

If you are interested in giving a paper or otherwise attending, or have
other questions about the event, please contact Ben Herzog
(ben.herzog@yale.edu) as soon as possible. (We would like to let the
Quinnipiack Club know how many people to expect for meals.)

We are excited at this opportunity to foster further discussion of our grad
students' excellent work.

Thanks, and hope to see you there!
