SCE -- MLA

MLA Website: http://www.mla.org

As an affiliated organization of the MLA, the SCE maintains two standing panels at the annual MLA convention. Usually, these panels are devoted to current project topics; in recent years, both panels have been dedicated to a single subject. Panels at the MLA are frequently a springboard for a dedicated conference or publication.

Several recent MLA panels are listed below; for 1999 and later panels, there are links to the papers presented.
