If you would like to have LAWCHA co-sponsorship for a session at the American Studies Association, please send the information to our program committee (Jana Lipman, chair) at lawcha@duke.edu. We welcome the opportunity to enhance the visibility of LAWCHA at other conferences, and our co-sponsorship can also sometimes help to make sure a worthy session is accepted when the competition is intense.
The American Studies Association proposal deadline is February 1.
