Michigan State University is America's first land-grant university and the prototype for the entire land-grant system created when President Lincoln signed the Morrill Act in 1862. Our conference theme --Green and Growing: The Land and Its Inhabitants in Fantasy-- resonates with the unique history of MSU and will inspire many excellent papers and panels; the Call For Papers will be posted on the website in September 2012.

Mythcon is an interesting blend of scholarly conference and fannish convention. In addition to plenary talks by our Guests of Honor, papers, and panels, we will present the 2013 Mythopoeic Fantasy and Mythopoeic Scholarship Awards at the Sunday evening banquet, we will enjoy various entertainments throughout the weekend and lots of community fun.

Venue: Kellogg Conference Center, Michigan State Universi
