Call for papers
THE 5th ANNUAL SOCIOLOGY OF SPORT DAY CONFERENCE
Saturday, February 3, 2007, Queen’s University, Kingston, Ontario
The School of Kinesiology and Health Studies at Queen’s University would like to invite all those interested in socio-cultural studies of sport to a day conference that will be held in the memory of our colleague Dr. Donald Macintosh.
The conference programme will consist of several sessions of graduate student presentations, a catered lunch, and the annual Donald Macintosh Memorial Lecture which will be given this year by Dr. Katherine Jamieson of the University of North Carolina, Greensboro. Dr. Jamieson has published numerous articles and book chapters at the intersection of sport sociology, critical race theory, Chicana feminisms, interpretive inquiry, and critical pedagogy.
Graduate students who would like to present their work at the conference should send abstracts or proposals for round-table discussions to Samantha King (kingsj@post.queensu.ca) by December 15, 2006. We are looking for presentations of works-in-progress, as well as presentations of completed research.
Kingston is accessible by VIA rail or bus. It is a two hour and 45 minute drive from either downtown Toronto or downtown Montreal. It is a two hour drive from Ottawa and a one hour drive from Watertown, New York. Registration fees are $20 for faculty and $10 for students.
For more information or to add your name to our email list, write to Samantha King, kingsj@post.queensu.ca.
