Queertopia! CFP deadline extension until April 8

Last call for the extended Queertopia! submission deadline! Abstracts of 250 words are due APRIL 8th to nuqpgsa@gmail.com, along with a 100 word presentation summary & 75 word bio (to go in the conference booklet).

Attached, please find the full call for proposals for this year's Queertopia! 5.0 at Northwestern University. Now in its fifth year, the theme for Queertopia! this May 25-27 is Sexing the Law: Love as/at the Limit.

This year's theme invites scholars, artists, and activists from all disciplines to sex the law; that is, to explore the violent / erotic tension between sexuality and "law" in the broadest sense possible. As always, Queertopia! is an interdisciplinary affair as we invite proposals from all areas of research! Additionally, Queergasm! An Interdisciplinary Performance Event will be part of the academic festival, this year hosted at Defibrillator Performance Art Gallery, and as always we'll close out the conference with a celebratory party. Queertopia! is sponsored by Northwestern University's Queer Pride Graduate Student Association and The Graduate School.
