CALL FOR PAPERS.

Student Conference in Linguistics 10
Special Theme: Linguistics in Cognitive Science
Keynote Speaker: Lila Gleitman 

June 6-7, 1998
Northwestern University

 The 10th annual Student Conference in Linguistics will be held at
Northwestern University in June 1998. SCIL is a student-run conference run
which aims to bring together graduate students from around the world to
present their research and build connections with other students. The
proceedings are published in the MIT Working Papers in Linguistics.

 We invite original, unpublished work in any area of linguistics. We would
particularly like to encourage submissions which border other disciplines,
in keeping with the conference theme. This includes, but is not limited
to, psycholinguistics, computational linguistics, anthropological
linguistics, speech perception and language acquisition.

 Guidelines for Submission: 

 Please submit ten copies of a one-page, 500-word, anonymous abstract for
a twenty-minute paper (optionally, one additional page for data and/or
references may be appended), along with a 3" by 5" card with:

 (1) your name,
 (2) your affiliation,
 (3) your address, phone number, and e-mail address,
 (4) the title of the paper, and
 (5) an indication of which subdivision of linguistics best describes the
topic (e.g., Phonetics, Phonology, Syntax, Semantics, Psycholinguistics,
Anthropological Linguistics, Computational Linguistics, etc.)

 The abstract should be as specific as possible, and it should clearly
indicate the data covered, outline the arguments presented, and include
any broader implications of the work.

 The deadline for receipt of abstracts is Friday March 13. Send abstracts
to:

 SCIL 10
 Department of Linguistics
 Northwestern University
 2016 Sheridan Road
 Evanston, IL 60208 

 E-mail abstracts will be accepted in ASCII ONLY. The email message should
also contain your name, affiliation, address, phone number, and e-mail
address, the title of your paper, and the area of linguistics within which
it falls. Email abstracts should be submitted to scilling.nwu.edu by 5pm
on March 13.
