Dear TYCA Colleagues,
We hope you will consider being a part of 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
deadline to submit is June 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. 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.
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 direct questions to our Regional Executive Committee (REC) email: TYCANor...@gmail.com.
We are planning a wonderful conference and hope you will join us!
Warmly, The TYCA-NE Regional Executive Committee (REC)
Jennifer Maloy and Sam McManus, Co-Chairs
