The conference takes place over a Thursday through Sunday in the fall term. \; The Conference is free and open to the public\; students and scholars with special interests in the conference theme are encouraged to attend. \; Participants and attendees enjoy high quality sessions with lively and productive discussions that typically spill over to receptions\, meals\, and so on.
