The 2009 NEPCA conference will take place October 23-24, 2009 at Queensborough Community College, which is part of the City College of New York system and is located in Bayside, New York in the Queens section of metropolitan New York City.

Since 1974 NEPCA has invited scholars from New England and New York to be part of an expanding intellectual community. Our annual conferences strive to obtain a balance of graduate students, independent scholars, and fulltime faculty members. They are designed to be nurturing conferences where works in progress share intellectual space with established scholarship. NEPCA conferences are also affordable for all.
