Fri Mar 23 2012 The race for victory in the Subfield Challenge is closer than ever! Editor for this issue: Matthew Lahrman <mattlinguistlist.org>
Date: 23-Mar-2012 From: LINGUIST List <linguistlinguistlist.org> Subject: Three cheers for our subfield challenge donors! E-mail this message to a friend Dear LINGUIST List Subscribers, Soooo close! Syntax is sooo close to taking the lead once again. Even with the heroic efforts from Roger Shuy and the Sociolinguistic group to raise $7094, Syntax looks poised to reclaim their title with $7082. With only $12 needed to match Sociolinguistics, will Syntax take the lead, or will Sociolinguistics fight to widen the gap? Donate today to determine the victor! https://linguistlist.org/donation/donate/donate1.cfm We'd also like to recognize some of our other subfields who are performing admirably in this battle. Semantics is now in third place and racing towards the $5000 mark with $4441. Computational Linguistics is not far behind with $4019. Language Acquisition is also one of our distinguished top five champions with a total of $3390! Want to rearrange the board a bit or see your subfield in this list? Make a statement with your contribution today! https://linguistlist.org/donation/donate/donate1.cfm Three cheers for all the subfields! Enthusiastically yours, The LINGUIST List Crew This Year the LINGUIST List hopes to raise $67,000. This money will go to help keep the List running by supporting all of our Student Editors for the coming year.

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! Read more issues\|LINGUIST home page\|Top of issue
