From Jon McKenzie
Asst. Professor of English
Coordinator of Modern Studies:
Media and pedagogy theorist Gregory Ulmer is visiting UWM this week.
On Thursday, 9/29, at 4:00 in Curtin 939, Prof. Ulmer will give an informal
colloquium hosted by the Modern Studies program. He will discuss the distinction between grammatology and deconstruction, creativity as supplement to critique, and how all of these inform his "emerAgency" consultancy project. In an open discussion, he will then apply his consultancy skills to the problematic, "w(h)ither modern studies?"
Everyone is welcome; see pdf.
