Dear TYCA Colleagues,
We are writing to let you know that we have extended the deadline for proposals for the 2026 Two-Year College English Association Northeast
(TYCA-NE) Conference to be held on October 2nd and 3rd in Lancaster,
Pennsylvania. The Call for Proposals is attached, and the new deadline to submit is July 1st, 2026.
Our
conference theme is "Meeting the Moment," bringing together two-year
college educators as well as those new to the field or who would like to
learn more to discuss past, present, and future moments in English
Studies. We have attached the full CFP here for your review.
This year our conference will take place in Lancaster, PA at the
Marriott at Penn Square,
located in the city's historic downtown, full of restaurants and
museums as well as the Lancaster Central Market, and a 7-minute drive to
the Lancaster Amtrak station. Conference attendees will be able to book
discounted hotel rooms and will enjoy two days of presentations, good
food, and great conversation at our conference--and also are invited to
participate in fall activities in the city, Lancaster’s first Friday art
gallery events, and local farmers fairs. To find out more about
Lancaster, you may go to

We invite you to visit the www.tycanortheast.org website
for more information about the conference. There, you will be able to
submit your proposal, register for the conference, and see information
regarding the current and past conferences in one location. You may also

We are planning a wonderful conference and hope you will join us!
