This regional conference will feature faculty and students delivering dynamic scholarly presentations and workshops across a wide array of academic disciplines. This year, the theme of the conference reflects the theme of our yearlong speaker series and its aim is to hear diverse perspectives, engage in new experiences, and encourage advocacy, action and self-expression.
The conference’s keynote speaker will be Gannon alumnus Annette Franklin, Ph.D., Lecturer Emerita of the State University of New York Fredonia. Franklin will present “A Quest for Education and Social Good,” during which she will discuss an oral history she completed on five paraprofessional teachers’ aides and how they found their voices throughout their experience in their preparation programs.
