“Money Trouble”

Recent economic troubles have made financial stress, which is perennially a trouble for graduate students, of larger societal concern. Given its current valence, the GSA Interdisciplinary Graduate Colloquia will be organizing an interdisciplinary panel to explore scientific, psychological, philosophical, literary, historical, and economic aspects of economic struggle, in particular how this relates to issues of class.

We are soliciting papers for an interdisciplinary panel, to be held Friday, February 27 at 4:30 pm, location TBA. Please submit abstracts of no more than 300 words to intergradcolloquium@gmail.com by Tuesday, February 17, EXTENDED TO FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 20.
