Junior Scholars WorkshopThe Junior Scholars Workshop is a program to support and encourage advanced graduate students and recent graduates working in the field of southern history, as well as to provide a space for SHA members to connect outside of the annual meeting. As such, we encourage attendees to chat with one another or say hello to friends. All attendees are also welcome to ask questions in the chat as well as on camera. Our first workshop of the year will take place Thursday, January 19, from 4-5 EST on zoom. The workshop will feature a paper by Nathan K. Finney (Goodpaster Scholar, U.S. Army) titled "'The Official War Emergency Organization in Your State': North Carolina Mobilization in the First World War" with comments by Brian Balogh (University of Virginia) and Jennifer Keene (Chapman University.) We are currently finalizing plans for fall 2023 workshops. For more information, or to ask about presenting in 2023-2024, email Kelly Kennington ([email protected]). Interested attendees should complete this short google form (https://forms.gle/zbm1yM1f6aAFfHKKA) to receive email announcements of coming workshops, as well as the pre-circulated paper about a week ahead of our meeting.
