Buffy academics descend on Yorkshire

by Jess McCabe // 26 May 2005, 14:18

Buffy experts are set to flock to Huddersfield University in Yorkshire, to attend a three-day conference on how the show could be used as a teaching aid, Yorkshire Today reports.

Anyone who fancies attending the conference, which is already attracting academics from around the world, might want to bone up on some of the critical works already dedicated to the show. There is even an online journal, Slayage, dedicated to studying Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

I can also recommend Sex and the Slayer: a gender studies primer for the Buffy fan.
