The 2025 English Graduate Student Association (EGSA) Conference will be held on Friday, March 28, from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. in the Chemistry and Physics building, Room 303. This year's theme, "Networks of Power and Agency," will feature graduate student research and presentations that explore the power dynamics of networked systems as they relate to gender, sexuality, race, class, and differently-abled bodies. Many of our presenters have adopted an interdisciplinary approach to this theme and include topics ranging from flat butt gaming, fungal horror, and the neurogothic.

The conference will feature a keynote speaker, Dr. Kimbely Owczarski, and her presentation titled ‘I Will Tell My Stories My Way’: Taylor Sheridan and Navigating Notions of Authorial Power and Agency during the 2023 WGA Strike. 

Any members of the UTA community are invited to attend this conference to enjoy and learn from our graduate students! Lunch will be included, but an RSVP is required! RSVP at: https://linktr.ee/utaegsa
