About MSSA

The MSSA is THE medieval literature and history research group at the University of New Mexico.  We are closely connected with the Institute for Medieval Studies and the English and History departments, specifically the Medieval Studies faculty.  As a group, we host events that are of interest to the medieval studies community at UNM and provide support to the Institute for Medieval Studies for their events.

We are an active organization that encourages scholarship in medieval history and literature and therefore many of our members are undergraduates with majors in English or History or the Medieval Studies minor, or are graduate students in English or History with a medieval concentration.  As part of this mission, we sponsor a student colloquium each semester to provide students the opportunity to share their work in a supportive and professional environment.

We're not all work, though; each semester we gather for events like Movie (K)nights and we are known to celebrate successful conferences and other victories as only Medieval Studies students can.  You can ask anyone: no one knows how to have a good time like a Medievalist.

2013-14 Officers

MSSA is looking for officers for the 2013-2014 year.  If you're looking to serve others in a leadership capacity and help MSSA do awesome things next year, or even if you're just looking for some information, please send us an e-mail explaining your interest.  We are especially interested in hearing from undergraduates who want to play an active role in the organization.  Contact us today!
