Organized by Britney Vu, Interrogating Our Own Work: The Art of Debating Your Research Project is designed to foster open, supportive, and critical engagement with ongoing research. Too often, students work in isolation, and while conferences and symposiums offer spaces to present ideas, meaningful feedback is frequently limited by time constraints. This event aims to fill that gap by creating a safe and constructive environment for students to share their work-in-progress, receive thoughtful critique, and practice articulating and defending their research decisions. Participants will be encouraged to reflect on their methodologies, assumptions, and findings as they learn from the perspectives of others. Whether presenting an outline or a literature review, refining a dissertation chapter, preparing for a defense, or testing a new idea, this session offers a unique opportunity to interrogate one’s work in dialogue with a supportive scholarly community.
