This is a bit in advance of the official ECPR website announcement ... but I have pasted in the list of successful workshops below.  The Theory 'College' advised on workshops 13, 14 and 15, but bear in mind that other workshops are obviously 'theoretical' and many will be 'theory-friendly' regarding some papers (i.e. many workshops say they will have a mix of 'theoretical' and 'empirical' papers), so when the 'call for papers' goes out in June (with details of each workshop), do consider a wide variety of options.  Best wishes, Terrell
