A call for academic papers, presentations and creative endeavors related to the Appalachian Mountains and/or any other mountains around the world is coming soon. Advanced undergraduates, graduate students and faculty or staff members at Appalachian State University were invited to propose group sessions or individual presentations from any academic discipline focusing on mountains. Faculty, students and staff with experience participating in study abroad in mountain areas were encouraged to submit proposals sharing perspectives on those experiences, too.
