What is the No Limits Conference?
The conference began in 1993 with a group of dedicated students who wanted to create an unquestionably interdisciplinary conference able to accommodate both traditional and non-traditional topics and presentations. Since that time the conference has remained student-oriented, open to undergraduate and graduate students, as well as recent graduates.
We invite proposals from undergraduates, graduate students, and recent graduates on any topic from any discipline related to women's issues (lives, histories, or culture) or gender studies/feminist studies, including masculinity and sexuality. Creative writing, visual arts, film, music, performances, workshops, and academic papers are all welcome. Proposals for individual presentations or poster presentations are accepted.
No Limits is a student research conference. So please announce to your students and share widely with others. There is no registration cost, and the event is free and open to the public.
