We are very excited to announce that Registration is now open for the 2022 Underhill!

The Underhill Graduate Student Colloquium is a FREE conference spotlighting MA and PhD research at Carleton and other Canadian Universities. Our Underhill 2022 theme, (Re)thinking History, is meant to forefront work going beyond the traditional bounds of academia including the sources being studied, the way we work, how we approach archives, how we share our work, the themes we consider, and the communities involved. 

REGISTER: Attendance at the Underhill is open to all undergraduates, graduate students, professors, researchers, and staff across Faculties and Departments at Carleton University and elsewhere. The Underhill is also open to friends, family, and colleagues of all graduate students presenting.

Thank you for joining us!
