Dear Subscribers,

 
 
Mfon Udoinyang is my name and I am an international student 
from Nigeria currently in my first year in the linguistics 
program at Eastern Michigan University. My coming to study 
at Eastern was made possible by the award of a position as a 
LINGUIST List editor, facilitated by your kind and generous 
donations. 
 
Please donate today to help students like me: 


https://linguistlist.org/donation/donate/donate1.cfm 
 


My tasks at The LINGUIST List includes approving the 
submissions of people who have created their personal 
profiles in The LINGUIST List database, resetting passwords 
for users, and approving submissions of university programs 
listed in our directory. I also respond to daily email 
inquiries about how to create and update profiles for 
individuals and programs. This has been a satisfying job 
experience for me as I get to meet and interact online with 
prominent scholars whose books I have read or heard about as 
a linguistics student. 
 


I'm also a team member of the LL-Map, which is a project 
designed to integrate language information with data from the 
physical and social sciences by means of a Geographical 
Information System (GIS). I sometimes find the high-tech 
aspects of my work a bit challenging, but the very supportive 
crew is helping me to find my feet quickly enough. Being at 
The LINGUIST List has enabled me to learn new and exciting 
things about linguistics that I would never have learned if 
I had studied linguistics up to the PhD level in my home country. 
 
The expertise, exposure, professional contacts and experiences 
will have incalculable benefits to me and ultimately my students 
in my future career as a linguist. Yet, all of this would not be 
possible without your kind and generous support to The LINGUIST 
List! 
 

 
Please donate now:

Thank you for your generosity! 

 
 
Mfon Udoinyang 

Linguist List Editor
 

This Year the LINGUIST List hopes to raise $65,000. This money will go to help

You can donate right now using our secure credit card form at

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as 
such can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 
501(c) Non Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These 
donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax return 
(U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact 
your financial advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match 
any gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your 
contacting your human resources department and sending us a form that the 
EMU Foundation fills in and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple 
administrative procedure that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without 
costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if your company 
operates such a program.

Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
