AWP AUSTIN 2020 OVERARCHING SCHEDULE
Please review our overarching schedule of events so you can plan your travel and extra-conference activities around our events. The pre-conference workshop descriptions are on the registration website.
Note that poster sessions will take place concurrently with our Friday and Saturday evening receptions, with the hope of enlivening poster conversations over food and drink. We hope to be able to support 36 students with reduced registration through volunteering for the conference and to help those interested in matching with roommates to share the cost of a room. Check out the registration page for where to apply.
We also want to create a dinner plan and meet-ups for Friday and Saturday night before our evening entertainment which we are very excited about. Finally, the papers and symposia submitted have been amazing and you will find your time slot in the Google doc above.
Thanks to all of you who submitted your outstanding work for consideration. Feel free to email us with additional questions at awpaustin2020@yahoo.com
