These two sessions are geared especially toward scholars at Yale who do any kind of editorial work in scholarly journals. Please register for either or both of the two sessions (lunch is served in the 12:15 pm session); to encourage conversation and exchange, registration will be limited to 25. These two closed sessions will be followed by a 4:00 pm open roundtable geared toward graduate students and early-career scholars.
