Each year since 2014, undergraduates from SFU鈥檚 World Literature Program have hosted an interdisciplinary academic student conference addressing cultural, social, and aesthetic frames of reference. Panels range across literature, cinema, & the image, and investigate the socio-political, cultural, & literary fallouts of cross-national encounters.

The 2024 World Literature Student Conference took place on March 28th in the ballroom of the new student union building. The conference theme, WAVES of DISSONANCE: Harmony, Revolution, & the Human, questioned how artistic discourse become instigators of change. Student presenters explored how disparate ideas flow into new possibilities, unravelling and reharmonizing the flows of the human condition alongside those of literature, art, and culture. 

This year鈥檚 conference featured 32 speakers from across our campus giving 3-minute presentations on art, literature, and culture. Over 170 members of the SFU community attended the conference which included dinner, dancing as well as live musical performances. 

As SFU鈥檚 largest undergraduate conference, the WLSC鈥檚 success is in great part the result of the tireless work and passion of Dr. Mark Deggan, the conference鈥檚 faculty liaison.
