Dear Friends & Colleagues:
It is my pleasure to send information about the Keats-Shelley Association events scheduled for the MLA in Austin. The K-SAA panel, organized this year by Joel Faflak, will be on Thursday 7 January, the first day of the convention. The K-SAA cash bar and celebratory awards dinner will be on Saturday 9 January. See details below. Please also note that this year the K-SAA is happy to offer a reduced rate for the awards dinner to graduate students and contingently employed faculty, so we hope that all who wish to attend this convivial gathering will be able to do so.
