Hello,
I am very interested in attending the conference and was wondering if you could give me some information on how to register? Is this invitational only? I’m in my first year as English Grad student specializing in Victorian Literature at the University of Wisconsin – Oshkosh and this would be my first literary conference. I appreciate any help you can give me.
Thanks,
Mary
Hi Mary, You can register to attend the conference as a participant, absolutely. Registration is due by May 1, so you have two weeks to return your materials to us. Visit the registration page of this website for instructions — you will have to pay a registration fee, but there is a reduced graduate student rate. You may be particularly interested in the Master Classes that we will hold. Do let us know if you have further questions. Best wishes, Kirstyn and the BWWC Committee.
Hi there — a participant in your conference left their folder at The Kitchen Cafe on Pearl St today (Saturday 6/9) while dining with us for lunch. I assume they will be missing it, so I will leave it in the lost and found here at the restaurant in case they should want to pick it up. Unfortunately I did not see a name in the folder, but hopefully the person will remember where they left it. Feel free to call the restaurant with any questions – 303-544-5973. Thanks!
