FYI Body:	The registration deadline for the 2011 Linguistic Institute, to be held July 2-August 7 at the University of Colorado at Boulder, is fast approaching. Online registration for the 79 one-credit hour Institute courses, including many courses on sociolinguistics, field methods, typology, syntactic/semantic pragmatic theory, cognitive science and computational linguistics, is open through June 1 at the Institute website: https://verbs.colorado.edu/LSA2011/index.html. Courses are being taught by over 100 outstanding international visiting faculty members. In addition, more than 20 affiliated workshops and conference meetings will be held during Institute 2011. This is a unique opportunity to enjoy a summer on one of the nation's most beautiful campuses, in the heart of a uniquely urbane and vital mountain city (acclaimed by Bon Appétit magazine as America's Foodiest Town 2010), and attend lectures on cutting edge approaches to linguistics from leaders in the field. The popular courses are filling up fast and are approaching their room-size limits, so if you are interested, please register as soon as possible.
