researchers while focusing on providing a supportive environment for those still
working on their degrees, or who have recently finished their degrees. The theme
for this year's meeting is Theoretical Contributions from Less-Commonly-Studied
Languages and Language Varieties. In addition to paper presentations, we will
also be hosting a panel discussion on the Role of Theory in Language
Description. While contributions from all subfields of linguistics are welcome,
we are especially seeking contributions from researchers whose work involves
less-commonly-studied language and language varieties, including (but not
limited to) fieldworkers, sociolinguists, phoneticians, syntacticians, and
discourse-researchers.
