Friends and Colleagues:

The 2017 Conference of the Kenneth Burke Society approaches, and many graduate students who will present original research at the conference need financial assistance.

The Friends of the Kenneth Burke Society is reaching out to scholars and teachers in the field of Kenneth Burke studies to help alleviate these graduate students' financial burden.

In partnership with the Kenneth Burke Society, we've set up this GoFundMe account for the collection of funds:

We invite all Burkeans to contribute to this effort. While a contribution of any size will help students, the Kenneth Burke Society plans to disperse funds in $50 increments as an honorarium to graduate students presenting at the conference. A contribution of at least $50 will directly contribute to one full honorarium.
