CUPE 2424 (Administrative, technical, and library staff at 杏吧原创) is currently on strike over issues that affect their livelihoods. We believe that students at 杏吧原创 should be aware of these issues and take them seriously. Furthermore, we are also aware that some conferences on campus have cancelled due to these circumstances, but we have decided to continue with the Colloquium due to the amount of individuals traveling for this event. If you are coming to the events of this Colloquium be advised you may experience some delays and that you should prepare appropriately. These inconveniences are small compared to those experienced by the members of CUPE 2424. Due to these circumstances, some changes have been made to the schedule, which are outlined below:
9:30-11:00 First Morning Session / Premi猫re Session du Matin (Thursday)
Panel One: Writing History, Crafting Stories
