Stephen Clarkson , longtime supporter of Canadian studies and of ACSUS, died unexpectedly in late February, 2016.  Stephen could always be relied upon to offer passionate, informed, and insightful contributions to our ACSUS meetings.  At our most recent Biennial in Las Vegas in October 2015, he presented a paper and took part in our "Thomas Enders Symposium" that was co-sponsored by the Thomas O. and Gaetana Enders Foundation and ACSUS.  He is pictured above (second from right) taking part in the Symposium that was organized by Christopher Sands, SAIS, Johns Hopkins,  at that conference.

Dear ACSUS Colleagues,

I work with colleagues at the University of Holguin, Cuba, on oranizing a biannual symposium on Canadian Studies held in Cuba jointly with a conference on language teaching and applied linguistics. This year's conference is April 27-29, wiht a February 25th deadline for submission of paper proposals. 

The McGill Institute for the Study of Canada (MISC) is accepting applications for the Eakin Visiting Fellowship in Canadian Studies for the Winter 2017 term.

It is my sad duty to inform you that our Canadian Studies community in the United States - and elsewhere - has lost another valued friend and colleague. On November 28th, 2015 Dr. Paul Storer, Professor of Economics at Western Washington University in Bellingham, WA, passed away.
