[Comicsstudiessociety] Seeking “Member-at-Large” for Grad Student Caucus 2022-2023

[Zach Rondinelli]

Good Afternoon Comics Scholars,


   We hope that you have all had a fun, safe, and healthy summer! While this email is specifically intended for members of the Graduate Student Caucus of the Comics Studies Society, we would request that senior members of CSS share this call widely with those within your communities/networks who may wish to become involved with the GSC. Membership in the GSC is defined within our newly revised and ratified constitution as the following:


4.1 All currently enrolled graduate students, newly admitted graduate students, graduate students between programs, and scholars engaged in postdoctoral research who are members of CSS are de facto members of the GSC. Graduate students between programs are defined as members who have received the receipt of a graduate degree (within the last three years) and are in the process of or intend on applying to doctoral programs.


4.2 All GSC members retain their membership in the Caucus for three years following the receipt of their (terminal or non-terminal) graduate degree under the condition that they maintain their membership with CSS.
