Caucus Co-Chair
The Graduate Caucus of the American Society for Eighteenth-Century Studies was founded in 1992 with the support of ASCES. We host a luncheon and annual meeting during ASECS's national conference, organize panels of professional and scholarly interest to our members and the larger community, have a mentoring program to connect graduate students with scholars in their areas of interest, award a mentoring prize to recognize outstanding faculty, and generally promote the "next generation" of eighteenth-century scholars.
Official Caucus Listservs and Groups
The Caucus has a thriving web presence in a variety of locations. Here's where to find us.
- Since 2000, ASECS has had a Graduate Student list-serv through Florida State University. The ListServ is the first clearing-house of information about ASCES activities of interest to graduate students. To sign up, please visit https://lists.fsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/gradstudents_asecs
- The Caucus also maintain a Google Group (ASECS-GCS) for Caucus members. You can request an invitation to this group by clicking on the link above.
- Our Facebook Group can be found by searching for "ASECS Graduate Student Caucus"
- Our Reading Group brings students from across the country together once a month to discuss various eighteenth-century texts (scholarly and primary). It was formerly hosted on Blogspot (archives remain there), but future discussions will take place on the Google Group.
Pedagogy Resources
- We also maintain a collection of pedagogical resources from faculty.
