The theme may be interpreted broadly, from the portrayal of empathy and/or ethics in literature and film to the way these works encourage an empathetic reaction in readers or viewers.

Proposals should be submitted via the online database at http://english.ttu.edu/cea/conftool by November 1.

When you submit your proposal, you may use a pull-down menu to indicate your topic. Indicate at that pull-down menu that your submission should be directed to me, Carol Osborne, chair of the Film and Literature panels. Note that proposals must be submitted directly to the database, not to panel chairs.

To preserve time for discussion, CEA limits presentations to 15 minutes.

All presenters must become members of the College English Association by January 1, 2007. For membership information, contact Joe Pestino at jpestin5@naz.edu
