On Thursday, September 30 in the Upper Level of the library over 25 people attended the Graphic Novel Forum. Professor Tilton presented first on comics and the internet. Kline discussed student perspectives on two specific graphic novel texts, Mouse and The Complete Persepolis that he has included in two of his English courses. “The Ends and Beginnings of Comics” was the topic Matt Wanat covered which included a brief discussion of the censorship of comics during the 1950’s. Emily Berry concluded the forum by presenting a paper she had written for Professor Wanat’s English class, “At Least the Tights Fit the Personality.” Following a lively discussion with the audience, all individuals who attended the event were given a free t-shirt recognizing the event.
