Dr. Eller will give a 30 minute presentation about the challenges he faced in researching his book, Uneven Ground and the general difficulties of writing recent contemporary history while being personally involved in the subject matter. A thirty-minute Q&A will follow his presentation.
In the time remaining, the Appalachian Research Community will hold its kick-off meeting. Topics to be discussed include: planning regular meeting times; member recruitment; an Appalachian film series; and the upcoming Research Symposium slated for February 20, 2010.
The event will take place Wednesday, September 23 from 3-5pm in room 103 of the Main Building. Light snacks will be served.
The Appalachian Research Community is a new graduate student group promoting interdisciplinary dialogue on Appalachian Research. Graduates and undergraduates conducting research associated with the region, as well as interested faculty, are invited to attend.
