Plans are under way with Adelphi’s MFA program to use the coming year to build up to a five-day all-Herstory conference to take place in the summer of 2010, to include three regular memoir-writing sections, as well a train-the-trainer track. The plans include the training of Adelphi MFA program interns in the Herstory technique, in order to allow them to play an active part as conference co-facilitators. As part of the build-up, we are considering a series of two or three one-day events in Fall 2009 and Spring 2010, possibly on the Garden City campus, possibly at Hauppauge or Varick Street. These small events would help us get out the word about the program, and give us all a sense of how to develop the linkages between Herstory and Adelphi.
