In previous academic years MRTW met quarterly for a full day of paper presentations and discussions of works in progress.

Previous events included meetings at Loyola, De Paul, and Northwestern with presentations from faculty and graduate students at UNAM-Mexico, De Paul, Loyola, Marquette, and Northwestern. Marzouq Alnusf (Northwestern) presented one of the featured papers entitled “Behind the 'Seen': A Critique of Al-Saji's Account of Racializing Vision and Hesitation.”
