Recent concerns about the future of academic feminism raised by Robyn Wiegman and others indicate that we are at a crossroads.

We invite you to join us as we discuss the future of professional women in academe and the role of the SAMLA Women's Caucus. You do not have to be a member of the caucus to join the discussion.

4. Kimball King, Southern Literary Journal Editor

5. Michele Sharp, recently tenured and promoted at East Carolina U

Tenure-track professors and department chairs are invited to question journal editors during this roundtable discussion of such issues as:

Should writers include a reference to being tenure-track in their cover

letter (as a means of reminding editors that they are on a time clock)? For the sake of the tenure-track professor in particular, how can editors

get referees to respond in a timely manner? How can journals provide

64




feedback, particularly to the graduate student writer or tenure-track

professor, and still respond in a timely fashion? What are reasonable

and unreasonable time lags between acceptance and publication, and

given the inevitable lags, what can CELJ do to encourage departments to count an accepted but forthcoming article in the tenure track review?
