(Location) The History Graduate Student Association (HGSA) at the
University of Ottawa proudly announces the 7th annual Pierre Savard
History Conference, to be held April 13- 15, 2011. The conference presents
innovative and exciting research from graduate students across the
province on a wide variety of historical topics

This bilingual conference is free to the public. Panels run all day
Thursday and Friday with Keynote presentations on Wednesday night and

(TELUQ-UQÀM) on April 13, 2011, Dr. Béatrice Craig (uOttawa) on April 14,
2011 and Dr. Carolyn Podruchny (York U) on April 15, 2011.

The conference offers a unique opportunity for graduate students to

HGSA believes that this interaction is essential to promote the importance
of historical knowledge in the 21st century.

Dr. Pierre Savard (1936-1998) was a distinguished scholar who served as
Chair of the Department of History at the University of Ottawa. His 229
publications are evidence of his devotion to Canadian history. In

encouraged his students. The HGSA is proud to honour his tradition through
this annual conference.
