Symposium II offers third year students in Critical and Visual Studies the space to demonstrate their critical practice by taking a significant role in planning for symposium speakers, generating supplemental materials for the reading list, leading small group discussions and presenting symposium material in contemporary and historical context. Each semester the symposium will explore a particular, topic, theme or question. Students in Symposium II will display critical analytic capacity through research, writing and speaking in public forums, framing symposium events and peer mentoring.
