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 TYCANortheast01.
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
