Join us on October 17th at noon in Cotter Café for our first Faculty Pub “PubTalk”. Faculty Pub is about supporting faculty who are working on writing projects and the PubTalk series embodies this with faculty who talk about their writing progress, process, and results. And the talks will generally be short with lots of opportunities for discussion. For the first PubTalk, we thought we’d start with the most interesting possible topic: killer birds. So come see Dr. Tycho de Boer from history give a talk called, “American Falconry and the Wilderness of the Mind”. Add the event to your Google Calendar using this link:

What does the “backstage” part of the writing and publishing process look like for your colleagues? Come to PubTalks and you’ll get a pretty good idea. Also, we’ve heard there will be doughnuts…

Edit: Tycho wants those attending the PubTalk to have access to his draft preface. [Download]
