More Information

Academic conference talks are typically designed to claim authority, precision, dispassion, and argument. Critical Karaoke permits us to gently experiment with these well-worn conventions.

Critical Karaoke Seminar Speakers: 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm
Dr. Lisa Henderson, Professor of Communication, University of Massachusetts Amherst
Dr. Ummni Khan, Joint Chair of Women’s Studies, Carleton University & the University of Ottawa
Dr. Merlyna Lim, Canada Research Chair, School of Journalism & Communication, Carleton
Dr. Rena Bivens, Assistant Professor, School of Journalism & Communication, Carleton
With introductory remarks from Melodie Cardin, Antonella Pucci, and Dr. Mélanie Millette (UQAM)

Graduate Student Workshop: 1:20pm – 2:20pm
The Graduate Workshop is aimed at helping students who are interested to create their own Critical Karaoke presentations to be included in a special panel at the CGC Graduate Conference, Imagined Realities, to be held March 16-17, 2017.

Food and refreshments will be served.

This seminar is supported by a SSHRC Connection grant, with additional support from the Faculty of Public Affairs, 1125@Carleton, and the Office of the Vice-President (Research and International).
