Many of the faculty in REL are soon hitting the road, heading east to Atlanta, to attend the annual meeting of the American Academy of Religion (AAR) — our main professional association here in the US. While our southeast region also meets in Atlanta (in the Spring), this is the national meeting, which takes place each November, and attracts thousands of scholars from around the world.REL

A lot of things happen at these meetings — some of the faculty are presenting their research while others are running workshops, serving on committees, and meeting with colleagues and publishers concerning projects they’re either working on hatching.

So, come this weekend, look for a few updates on our Twitter and Instagram pages.
