 University of California, San Diego and San Diego State University

 Invited speakers:

SALT 12 invites submissions for 30-minute presentations, with an
additional 10 minutes for discussion, on any topic in the semantic
analysis of natural language emphasizing the connection to linguistic
theory.

Abstracts must be no more than 2 pages long (including references and
examples), and no more than 1200 words. Please leave at least a
1-inch (2.5 cm) margin on all four sides, and use at least a 12-pt
font. In the interest of fairness, these limitations will be strictly
enforced. Any person may submit at most one abstract as sole author,
and at most two abstracts in total. Abstracts must arrive by December
10 (Monday), 2001; note that this deadline is SIGNIFICANTLY EARLIER
than last year's deadline, in order to accommodate the earlier
conference dates (traditional for West Coast editions of SALT). We
will not be able to consider abstracts that arrive, for whatever
reason, after the deadline.

We strongly prefer ELECTRONIC SUBMISSIONS. Please use PDF whenever
possible, but plain ASCII text, PostScript, and Microsoft Word are
acceptable. In order to be counted as meeting the deadline,
electronic submissions must be received on Monday 10 December 2001 by
11 PM Pacific Daylight time. Email submissions must include the
authors' names, affiliations, and contact information, bearing in mind
that the abstracts themselves must be STRICTLY ANONYMOUS. If you
decide to send abstracts through the mail, in addition to a sheet
giving names, affiliations, and contact information, please include 7
anonymous copies for refereeing. Abstracts should be sent to:
