linguistlist.org>Dear LINGUIST subscribers, LINGUIST has good news this fall! We have moved one of our main sites from Texas A&M to Wayne State University. That means LINGUIST is now a joint operation between Eastern Michigan University and Wayne State University (which is offering generous backing). We would like to give special thanks to those prominent linguists who wrote letters to WSU expressing support for LINGUIST's role in the academic community, thus helping make the move happen. To signal our move to WSU, our pages now have a new look which you have no doubt already noticed. The new pages were designed by Elaine Halleck, one of our outgoing editors, who is leaving us to teach graphic design. We also happily report that our fund drive was successful, thanks to the many donors whose names are listed at the end of this message. Because of your support, we can welcome the following new graduate student editors. We have asked each to write a paragraph of self-introduction, which we append below: Scott Fults, Eastern Michigan University I grew up in the Detroit area and graduated from the University of Michigan with a B.A. in English. Since then, I've been everything from a pipeliner to a car wash attendant to a salesman of physics toys to teachers. After reading several linguistics texts and taking a few classes at Eastern, I decided to try my luck with grad school. I love syntax and semantics, especially the scientific/ cognitive aspect of it all. My hobbies include cooking and playing guitar (I'm just beginning!) and I also volunteer tutor for a local literacy program. Jody Huellmantel, Wayne State University I am currently a graduate student in the linguistics program at Wayne State university. I've spent the last five years at the center for Creative Studies, studying Fine Arts in Detroit, Michigan. My focus has been on sculpture and photography. I am now concentrating my efforts on linguistics, and on the analysis of individual languages. Karen Milligan, Wayne State University Trained as a dancer and a musician, I have been performing or teaching for most of my life. My undergraduate degree is in theater and music, and for a short time, a long time ago, I danced professionally. I always knew I would teach ballet, and opened my own school twenty years ago. In 1990 I went to the former Soviet Union as a guest of their Ministry of Culture to study their legendary teaching methods (a *very enlightening* experience!). Last year, feeling burned out and needing a change, I announced plans to retire from teaching and began pursuit of a degree in my other passion -- linguistics. I didn't retire, but now my ballet students bring me their questions about language! We are also very pleased to announce that Andrew Carnie will be serving this year in a new role as Moderator. Andrew has done such an outstanding job as Review Editor that we wanted him to take an even larger part in running the list. Fortunately, we were able to convince him; and he will be working on LINGUIST from the U. of Arizona. The LINGUIST crew is looking forward to a bright new academic year. We value your continued participation in this forum, as we strive to increase its value to you all.
