Struggling with writing a dissertation? You're not alone.

Crafting a dissertation can be an arduous


task, requiring extensive research, critical analysis, and coherent writing over an extended period.
Many students find themselves overwhelmed by the sheer magnitude of the project, grappling with
complex ideas and trying to find the right words to express them effectively.

One individual who knows this struggle firsthand is Nick Sousanis, whose dissertation gained
widespread acclaim for being presented entirely in comic book form. His groundbreaking work, titled
"Unflattening," challenged conventional academic norms and demonstrated the potential of visual
storytelling in scholarly communication.

However, not everyone possesses Sousanis' innovative approach or artistic talents. For many, the
traditional format of a dissertation remains daunting, leading to frustration and procrastination. The
pressure to produce original research, coupled with the fear of failure, can be paralyzing.

His award-winning book, Unflattening, published by Harvard University Press in 2015, argues for
the importance of visual thinking in teaching and learning. It doesn’t mean anything in English—it’s
not a word people use. One might think about the adage concerning the worth of pictures and
thousands of words, and that does come up in the work itself, but this is something more than a trite
saying. Just as his square peels away the coin from lineland to reveal it to be flatland, so too Sousanis
convinces us, by both text and deed, of the power of comics. Our first speaker, John Jennings (UC
Riverside) and Stacey Robinson (the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign), will discuss their
work and the critical interventions they make in academic and popular conversation. Feeling inspired
by the conversation in this episode. For instance, if you make Little Red Riding Hood a red triangle,
then what does the mother look like. Compartilhar no Twitter Compartilhar no Facebook

conversations at the intersections of disability studies and animal studies in popular culture. This is a
“linelander,” and all linelanders see each other this way. Before coming to New York City, he was
immersed in Detroit’s thriving arts community, where he co-founded the arts and culture site
thedetroiter.com and became the biographer of legendary Detroit artist Charles McGee. David
Mazzucchelli is someone who does that kind of work, but he’s not interested, at least at this point, in
doing nonfiction. Abbott’s novella Flatland (1884), about a dystopian flatland of two dimensional
objects, where a coin would not be seen by others for its circular shape, but rather would be seen
edge-on as just a line obscuring the horizon. Discussion of “The Suvin Event” and “On Not Definite
Science Fiction,” and discussion of an “Eco-Syllabus.” March 15 th. 1:30-3:00pm. Wells C-640.
Time will also be devoted to thinking about different kinds of writing—we’ll discuss writing across
different media (i.e. video or photographic essays) and writing across genres (i.e. blogging, reviews,
or non-academic writing). Those images that so often sit confined within frames within museum
galleries or as a ghettoized section of glossy pages in the middle of an art book, they are given life
and agency by Sousanis’ deploying of them as allies to his words. In the second half, attendees will
work in break-out groups with one of the workshop faculty to go over, get feedback on, and ask
questions about attendee CVs. My first comics look very McCloudian, where I’m just sitting there
doing stuff. We’ll also be hosting guest speakers (Allison Griffiths), as well as running a roundtable
workshop in the spring on decolonial pedagogies. And, crucially, what are the possibilities for
resisting these historical processes to create more inclusive, democratic worlds. How are they used to
drive neoliberalism, with its economization of all domains of life. Hosted by Dr. Kristin Mahoney.

in a highly complex system and is connected to it by his or her actions. The second session, featuring
Dr. Rachelle Cruz (UC Riverside), will also be pedagogically driven and consider Dr. Cruz’s comics
studies textbook, Experiencing Comics, in order to discuss approaches to critical engagement with
the medium as well as intentional text-selection for courses interested in comics and graphic
narratives. Also, what kinds of skills does close reading give students that reach beyond reading a
text. Dr. Cheryl Clarke, Poet, Essayist, Activist, and Educator. Some questions that shall guide our
reflections on our research, teaching, and praxis include the following: How are constructions of
gender and sexuality used to sustain white supremacy, a patriarchal and racist set of beliefs and
institutions. She didn’t then exist, but she’s in my notes three years before she was born and she’s in
my book.
Note on the Entomological School of Cinema.” April 19 th. 3:00-5:00. 110 Chittenden Hall. My first
comics look very McCloudian, where I’m just sitting there doing stuff. This workshop focuses on
how and why to teach close reading in both the literature and film classrooms. We will consider how
close reading can benefit our students and what learning goals can be fostered via this practice. It
asks, “What are trans crossings of embodied borders and speciated and racialized differences good
for?” Amin takes a literal approach to this question, focusing on the early twentieth-century medical
fervor for the transplantation of glands, in particular the ovaries and testicles, across sex and species,
with distinct racializing effects. You write that there’s a way not exactly to achieve true freedom but
to recognize the structures that bind us, and possibly to gain control of them through that
recognition. It is a long-standing joke among academics that it is rare that the thesis they slave over
for four or more years ever actually gets read. While these erotic and corporeal freedoms are often
severely punished, the authors demand a particular labor from the reader, which is to bear witness to
the interstitial effects of domination and to take note of how erotic freedoms emerging from Afro-
femme subjects challenge the intimacies of dictatorship and occupation. We want Little Red Riding
Hood to be our protagonist, and if the mother is in the same scene and looks the same only much
larger, then Red Riding Hood shrinks almost to the background. When that first spark of her showed
up on an ultrasound, I became intensely aware of how her anticipated arrival would coincide in a
cosmically weird way with my finishing this book. In early 2008, Sousanis moved from Detroit to
New York City to pursue a Doctorate of Education in Interdisciplinary Studies at Columbia
University's Teachers College. This research workshop will draw on popular culture in the form of
novels, films, and video games and theory from disability studies to critical race theory to queer
studies to animal studies in order to think through disrupting white western denials of
interdependence. Because so much of our time is spent thinking about our syllabuses, what to add
and what to cover, and because it is easy to fall into well-trod patterns of assignment types (quizzes,
essays, etc.), this workshop seeks to jump start pedagogical thinking about alternative and innovative
ways to engage students, meet learning goals, and lead a dynamic course. Our main goal for this
workshop is to have you leave with a concrete plan of action that will help you begin the process of
narrowing down your interests, articulating your research questions, and drafting that all-important
proposal document. Wild enthusiasm and plunge-taking fearlessness aside, Sousanis seems like a
solid citizen; while his ideas are radically utopian, their flavor is resolutely wholesome. We will also
think about how to highlight your own professional experience in this document and take a look at
samples. Please bring your ideas, experiences, and questions. For instance, is all or any teaching
social justice work. I trace how these works reveal how structural domination shapes and impacts
everyday intimate practices including: access to sustenance, sociality, and sexual desire. Not because
they’re actually irrational, but because we don’t have the ways to hold them in. We will seek to
answer: what are the potentials and pitfalls of the overlap between disability and animal studies. He
followed up an undergraduate degree in mathematics with a brief stint as a professional tennis
player, then cofounded and edited a cultural magazine in Detroit, while also working as an artist. By
focusing on the example of alimentation, this interconnectedness can be exposed and presented in a
form that everyone can understand. The workshop aims to students who may be approaching this
IAH assistantship with no teaching experience, while also helping students who do have some
teaching experience navigate the teaching assistant role. There’s a narrative, but it’s not a story—it’s
the text telling the image what to do, and form matters more than anything else. Each element is an
actor exerting some sort of pull on the others, and you need to account for all of them. Clare offers
the disability studies notion of interdependence as a way to undo fantastical narratives of
independence and the individual. When we start thinking about those kinds of spatial relationships
and how our fundamental ideas are grounded in that way of thinking, when we have that kind of
training, it might change how we write and how we are able to communicate. The format of this
workshop is up in the air pending discussion with faculty and student workshop leaders. Comics, in
youth, are acceptable, but as we age we regard them more as juvenile diversions. Why is
intersectionality a crucial site of theoretical and praxis-centered inquiry.
And, crucially, what are the possibilities for resisting these historical processes to create more
inclusive, democratic worlds. Moreover, his endnotes at the back serve not only to acknowledge his
textual sources, but also to draw attention to and explain his visual inspirations. In Fall 2016, he will
join the School of Humanities and Liberal Studies at San Francisco State University as an Assistant
Professor. Patrick Johnson, introduction to No Tea, No Shade: New Writings in Black Queer Studies;
C. Well, if you make the mother a big red triangle, you understand that they’re related, but she’s too
visually dominant. Sousanis’s award-winning book, Unflattening (2015), argues for the importance
of visual thinking in teaching and learning. He also contributed arts coverage for the Detroit Metro
Times. As we interrogate the ways that differences of gender and sexuality are imagined and used to
create meaning, whether oppressive or liberatory, we will consider how these differences intersect
with those of class, race, ethnicity, ability, and nationality. We will primarily workshop pre-
circulated submissions from local and visiting scholars—work that is new and, preferably, in-
progress. The book is very much an argument that we make sense of the world in ways beyond
text—teaching and learning shouldn’t be restricted to that narrow band. It’s a great if a college-
educated person can read it, too, but if this guy can read it and realize that he’s smarter than he
realized, that’s pretty cool. His text is often sparse and pared down to its most necessary elements,
but the accompanying visuals draw the eye along and serve as an obvious example that reinforces
the sometimes vague text. That doesn’t mean it’s bad or good, but we should understand that it’s
something someone made up once upon a time and other people accepted and walked down that
path. Everything You Wanted to Know about Teaching IAH But Were Afraid to Ask (PART 2) TBA:
Tentatively, Friday Sept 6 or Sept 13th This workshop will serve as a low-key follow-up to the
workshop held for new graduate students and those teaching MSU’s Integrative Arts and
Humanities classes. The Graduate Committee vets proposals for future Research Workshops during
the spring semester. The non-fiction works in the form of text books and scholarly journals are tools
to educate us. When that first spark of her showed up on an ultrasound, I became intensely aware of
how her anticipated arrival would coincide in a cosmically weird way with my finishing this book.
We’ll also be hosting guest speakers (Allison Griffiths), as well as running a roundtable workshop in
the spring on decolonial pedagogies. Topics steering the workshop this year will include the
intersections between film historiography and aesthetic, generic, or postcolonial theory, examinations
of film as text, archival object, and commodity, and a focus on geopolitical categories of world,
nation, and region that are currently used to classify film. It is a long-standing joke among academics
that it is rare that the thesis they slave over for four or more years ever actually gets read. And,
crucially, what are the possibilities for resisting these historical processes to create more inclusive,
democratic worlds. It showed that comics can be lots of things, including educational. Alongside
this, the workshop series will work with the MSU Library to begin creating an Open Electronic
Resource (OER) aggregating comic sources for classroom use. As we interrogate the ways that
differences of gender and sexuality are imagined and used to create meaning, whether oppressive or
liberatory, we will consider how these differences intersect with those of class, race, ethnicity, ability,
and nationality. Writing: The Comprehensive Exam Proposal This writing workshop will focus on the
how-to of the comprehensive proposal, building a list, studying for the exams, and jumping from
comprehensive exams to the dissertation. Continue your search on this website by using the search
engine. By focusing on the example of alimentation, this interconnectedness can be exposed and
presented in a form that everyone can understand. But if you can find ways to keep your eyes open
in that same way, while retaining the experience of knowing how to use your hands and not having
to learn that all over again—that’s what I wanted to get at. Additionally, several of the department’s
peer mentors will offer their advice and experiences on what has worked for them in their semesters
as IAH graduate assistants. He has given invited public talks at Stanford University, UCLA, and
Microsoft Research (which also hosted an exhibition of the work), and keynote addresses at the
annual conferences of the Visitor Studies Association and the International Visual Literacy
Association.
My first comics look very McCloudian, where I’m just sitting there doing stuff. Please bring your
ideas, experiences, and questions. The Workshops are open to all English faculty members and
graduate students, and any interested members of the MSU community, and run throughout the year,
meeting monthly. Writing: The Comprehensive Exam Proposal This writing workshop will focus on
the how-to of the comprehensive proposal, building a list, studying for the exams, and jumping from
comprehensive exams to the dissertation. I asked one of them what he thought, and he said, Yeah,
it’s all about how we perceive things. Additionally, we talk about how close reading can be a way to
facilitate classroom discussion and look at strategies to that end. Pedagogy: Designing Innovative
Assignments This workshop tackles assignment design. Workshops are often linked to the
Department’s Speaker Series. Through the science fiction of the period, Amin argues that
glandxenotransplantation was a form of transing that constituted, rather than troubling, the biological
concepts of sexual, racial, and species difference. South of Market and its gay leather population
exemplify changes in land use and real estate markets, raising the question of whether the “gay city”
has a future, and what kind of future it has. As you said, there are a lot of talking-head books.
Feeling inspired by the conversation in this episode. Because so much of our time is spent thinking
about our syllabuses, what to add and what to cover, and because it is easy to fall into well-trod
patterns of assignment types (quizzes, essays, etc.), this workshop seeks to jump start pedagogical
thinking about alternative and innovative ways to engage students, meet learning goals, and lead a
dynamic course. I always knew I would end the book with a child’s eyes looking upward and
outward, with the idea of seeing as if for the first time. It champions the comic, for “while the image
is, the text is always about.” Indeed, it is brilliantly argued throughout that “the visual provides
expression where words fail.”. Some questions that shall guide our reflections on our research,
teaching, and praxis include the following: How are constructions of gender and sexuality used to
sustain white supremacy, a patriarchal and racist set of beliefs and institutions. Our main goal for this
workshop is to have you leave with a concrete plan of action that will help you begin the process of
narrowing down your interests, articulating your research questions, and drafting that all-important
proposal document. So profound are many of these moments of illumination that they go a long way
to rejuvenating our desire to see the world anew, from a child’s eyes once more. Hosted by Dr.
Kristin Mahoney. Friday, April 12 th. He publishes articles on teaching with comics in the Journal of
Curriculum and Pedagogy and other venues. At that point TheDetroiter.com was sold to the YMCA.
But if you can find ways to keep your eyes open in that same way, while retaining the experience of

Viewed from a present marked by a rapid decline in insect populations inaugurated in the postwar
intensification of efforts to control the populations of pests and vectors, the entomological school of
cinema offers experiments in perception—beginning from a position with one’s belly on the ground,
looking at insects—for reconsidering the entangled worlds of mites and men. Comps 101 Friday
Oct. 4, 2:00-4:00 You might be nearing the end of coursework and are thinking about how best to
tackle your comprehensive exam experience. This workshop hopes to make the publication process
more approachable by talking to Kurt Milberger of our own MSU Press. In my youth, the newspaper
seemed a vast swarm of text and a few images that encircled a hidden prize: the funnies. Professor
Sousanis will discuss his own comics work and process, Unflattening Comics which has been taught
in recent MSU graduate seminars, as well as his pedagogic approach to comics in the classroom and
teaching those students with limited access to or experience with the medium. In the second half,
attendees will work in break-out groups with one of the workshop faculty to go over, get feedback
on, and ask questions about attendee CVs.

informal mentoring structure for students. I asked one of them what he thought, and he said, Yeah,
it’s all about how we perceive things. How about when finding a quote leads you to read rather than
write. Topics steering the workshop this year will include the intersections between film
historiography and aesthetic, generic, or postcolonial theory, examinations of film as text, archival

page no longer exists or you have clicked on a faulty link. Just as his square peels away the coin
from lineland to reveal it to be flatland, so too Sousanis convinces us, by both text and deed, of the
power of comics. While he was living in Detroit, Sousanis' own artwork appeared in a number of
shows in the Detroit area, including a billboard for the Ferndale, Michigan Public Art Project. This
may all seem obvious, but Sousanis brings to bear so many examples and graphical displays to
reinforce his line of argument, that the journey through this work is quite remarkable. He has been
invited to speak on comics, education, and alternative scholarship at such places as the National
Gallery of Art (DC), Stanford University, Harvard’s MetaLab, and Microsoft Research. It is the
result of the two-day symposium Science meets Comics, held in October 2015 in the Cluster of
Excellence Image Knowledge Gestaltung. Well, it’s the thing you do because that’s what people have
been doing—that’s the way the funnel works. That experience of seeing new is something I wanted
Unflattening to remind us of. As we interrogate the ways that differences of gender and sexuality
are imagined and used to create meaning, whether oppressive or liberatory, we will consider how
these differences intersect with those of class, race, ethnicity, ability, and nationality. The workshop
is meant primarily as a means to share work in progress (essays, chapters, conference papers, films)
for collective feedback and discussion. Wild enthusiasm and plunge-taking fearlessness aside,
Sousanis seems like a solid citizen; while his ideas are radically utopian, their flavor is resolutely
wholesome. It is some solace that the accompanying images from Sousanis’ work will allow readers
of this review to gain greater insight in the majesty of his pairing of imagery and text. An
Interdisciplinary Laboratory at the Humboldt-Universitat zu Berlin, which discussed and developed

Walter Nickell ( Nick ) Sousanis is a scholar, art critic, and cartoonist; a co-founder of the
TheDetroiter.com, he is also the first person at Columbia University to write a dissertation entirely in
a comic book format. It’s a great if a college-educated person can read it, too, but if this guy can read

children to be very “unflat,” to recognize the circumstances they are born into and that they acquire
but also able to see with open eyes so as to make their own way. This isn’t the typical career path for
a cartoonist—though to be fair, that profession doesn’t provide many followable emblematic models
in that regard. Before coming to New York City, he was immersed in Detroit’s thriving arts

that it’s something someone made up once upon a time and other people accepted and walked down
that path. We know how to illustrate what we say—comics artists and artists in general do amazing
things with ideas—but when we think about visual ideas in terms of education, there’s a stumbling
block. Over time, the picture book gives way to the novel. There’s a lot we can do in comics and
through visuals that gets at how our bodies work and how we think through those ideas better than
removing it a step and having to describe it. He publishes articles on teaching with comics in the

comics through two interrelated branches, critical inquiry and engaged pedagogy, as a means of
bringing together faculty and graduate students with current and burgeoning interests in comic
studies.
We will work to help find solutions to any issues that may have arisen—those we may have

Chronicle of Higher Education piece on his project, see “ This Dissertation Will Be Comic. ”. Each
Workshop is coordinated by one faculty member and one graduate student. He has given invited
