The NEA Programming Committee is putting out a special call for presentation proposals for a session dedicated to highlighting graduate student work. The committee will review proposals from current master’s and doctoral students through July 30, 2025. 

Presentations will be in lightning talk format with each presentation lasting no more than 10 minutes. We encourage students to submit proposals related to research, student work, archival internships/jobs, and other archival intersections. 

 We look forward to seeing you all in Portland!
