Call for Submissions
The UnderCurrents Editorial Collective is now inviting art and written work
for Vol. 14, Nomad.
Possible topics include: navigation and movement across geography, locations
and boundaries; memories of place; interpretations of home; transportation
and
escape; transience, disappearance and return; and how we know where here is.
UnderCurrents is an independent, non-profit journal produced by students
from
the Faculty of Environmental Studies at York University. Since 1988, we have
published creative and critical writing, artwork and photography that
explore
the relationships between nature, society and self. Submissions from any
field
are welcome, particularly those that challenge conventional academic and
environmental discussions.
The deadline for submissions is 30 April, 2004. Electronic submissions
preferred. Include name, address, brief bio, email and phone number. Please
submit artwork in b&w, at least 5x7, 600 dpi, .tiff files, and text in .doc
to
currents@xxxxxxxx
The Collective will work closely with authors whose work has been selected.
UnderCurrents policy encourages authors to avoid the use of discriminatory
discourse (e.g. racist, sexist, homophobic, etc.)

EPAC wants you to get involved in developing the Academic Plan in your
division. Over the next few months, each faculty and department will be
developing a plan for its academic programs, including teaching and
research. The University has stated the importance of interdisciplinary
teaching and research related to the environment. Please get involved in
the academic planning process to help address this important area.
Write to or speak with your faculty's dean or department's chair on your
views about environmental teaching and research, and ask how to get more
involved.
