Thank you to everyone involved for your work&nbsp;on this important new initiative. On top of that is the new Dissertation Writing Group which will be taking place on<span class=\"apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span>pre-scheduled Friday afternoons in the seminar room. &nbsp;It&#8217;s so wonderful&nbsp;to see the support that you have for each other.<span class=\"apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span>We always were a fabulous place to work, teach and study but it just seems to get better and better!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Culture Hub has been busy too! &nbsp;The year started off with&nbsp;the Inaugural Sotheby&#8217;s Residency in Curatorial Studies with Dr. Terry Smith&#8217;s visit in September for two very well-attended&nbsp;seminars and a public lecture at the National Gallery of Canada. &nbsp;This was quickly followed by the FASS&nbsp;Distinguished Visiting Professors visit by Dr. Fran\u00e7oise Lionnet and Shu-mei Shih from the University of California, Los Angeles for another series of workshops and a keynote in collaboration with the French Department and the Centre for Transnational Cultural Analysis called Two Views on the Postcolonial was a wonderful programme well enjoyed by everyone who was able to attend! &nbsp;Culture Hub is also working with James Deaville (ICSLAC\/SSAC) to host a panel discussion entitled<span class=\"apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><em>Working with Cinematic &#8220;Paratexts&#8221;<\/em><span class=\"apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span>on Wednesday, November 12th in our seminar room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mark Phillips (ICSLAC\/History), winner of the Wallace K.
