"Elevate"

April 2nd - 6th, 2014
DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSIONS: October 4, 2013
Using the convention theme, “Elevate,” I invite submissions that address the many ways that we can elevate our research, teaching, and fellowship. By pushing the boundaries of traditional inquiry, we can elevate our understanding of communication. By pushing the boundaries of traditional instruction, we can elevate our ability to educate others about communication. Program planners are encouraged to consider creative ways to develop innovative co-sponsored panels. There will also be spotlight panels dedicated to the convention theme. This broad and flexible theme will allow us an opportunity to explore the ways that we can “Elevate” the membership of CSCA by creating more opportunities for teaching, scholarship, and fellowship.
