On the Same Page + Town Meeting: Thursday November 8



Attention MFA candidates, this Thursday's event will be a double feature: we will have a 45-minute discussion on nonfiction, and following that talk we will be engaging in a conversation about all things MFA (Where are we so far? Where shall we go next? What should you be doing in the meantime?). First half will be moderated by Prof. Rigoberto Gonzalez and MFA candidate Jackie Pervizaj. Same place (Faculty lounge), same time (6-8 pm). BE THERE!
