From May 20-23, Melissa Parks joined with other scholars and community activists in Reno, NV to take part in the RSA Project in Power, Place, and Publics: Rhetorical Cartographies. The group as a whole focused on rhetorically analyzing the University of Nevada, Reno Campus Master Plan. Melissa’s specific working group, led by Professor Bridie McGreavy and Dr. Scott Kelly, focused on issues of environmental justice and involved collaboration with staff and clients of the Eddy House, a youth homeless shelter.
