The Department of World Languages and Cultures would like to invite you to its Annual Southeast Coastal Conference on Languages & Literatures (SECCLL). 

This conference includes topics in Arabic, Classics, French, German, East Asian languages, and Spanish, and studies of language, literature, culture, pedagogy, and film. SECCLL encourages the participation of Graduate students.

SECCLL is a scholarly gathering that attracts scholars from the region and beyond. SECCLL is oriented toward the participation of scholars from both public and private institutions of higher education. It is a collegiate, informal and respectful environment marked by a rigorous and productive exchange among academics.

Submit a Presentation

For over two decades, SECCLL has been a friendly and engaging gathering of teachers and scholars to share research, innovative teaching practices, and creative work related to languages, literatures, and cultures. We invite proposals for individual 20-minute papers, panels of three individual 20-minute papers on a common topic or theme, as well as roundtables. Presentations may address a wide range of subfields related to language study.

We especially welcome presentations that engage with current issues shaping the study, teaching, and use of languages and cultures, including—but not limited to—career readiness, content creation and creative writing, emerging technologies, interdisciplinary approaches to language education and research, student recruitment and retention, and study abroad and study away.
