THE ROSARIO CASTELLANOS SEMINAR
Named for one of Mexico’s most important writers, diplomats, and public intellectuals, this program will bring students and faculty into conversation with prominent Mexican academics, artists, & public figures

I went to UT Austin for grad school because I was interested in Native American poetics and rhetoric, this book by Joel Sherzer and Tony Woodbury was a big influence, taking the speech play and verbal art class with them was a highlight of grad school, getting to teach it now is a real delight
