The group is sponsored by The Karla Scherer Center for the Study of American Culture at the University of Chicago.
This is a monthly workshop in which graduate students studying urban history issues present to their peers works-in-progress from their dissertations. Papers are pre-circulated by email and must be requested in advance. If you are interested in presenting or would like to attend, please contact scholarlyseminars@newberry.org.
Nathalie Barton, University of Chicago, serves as coordinator for 2020-2021.
The group is open only to graduate students (no faculty), and members should be committed to attending as many of the meetings as possible.
