I'm in the process of forming a panel for the American Studies Association meeting in Albuquerque (10/16/08 thru 10/19/08).

I'm thinking of it as a round-table discussion format, where the audience responds.

The question that your brief presentation should address is:

Given the current academic and political conditions affecting American studies, how do community college instructors integrate "multicultural, transnational, and/or public scholarship” given the structural realities of their institutions?
