Hi Folks,

I am putting together a panel on bodies in the workplace for the 2014 Berkshire Conference on Women's History. One paper will examine flight attendants' grievances pertaining to body issues, e.g. grooming, weight, uniforms, etc. and another will discuss issues related to bodies and work in the banking industry. I am still looking for 1 or 2 more papers, as well as a chair and a commentator. If you would like to be a part of this panel, please contact me: juliasmith [at] trentu.ca.

All the best,
