Media Studies Colloquium
Media Studies Colloquium
Designed to expose students to the diversity of media studies scholarship, the Radio-Television-Film (RTF) department's Media Studies Colloquium enables advanced graduate students to present work related to their dissertation projects, provides models for research presentations, and offers a platform for discourse.
The Colloquium’s programming also includes presentations from RTF faculty and visiting scholars.
All RTF faculty and graduate students are encouraged to attend, while others are welcome as well.
These talks will be held from 3:30–4:45 pm CT in DMC 5.208, unless otherwise noted.
A Q&A session will follow each 40-minute presentation.
