Applications are invited for the European and American Young Scholars' (= PhD since May 1997) Summer Institute on ''The Concept of Language in the Academic Disciplines'', to be held in August 2003 and August 2004. The Faculty for the Institute are Professors John E. Joseph (University of Edinburgh) and Talbot J. Taylor (College of William & Mary). A number of prominent guest lecturers will also participate.

    The programme, made possible by grants from the Andrew W.

The 2003 institute will take place at the National Humanities Center in North Carolina, and the 2004 institute at a location in Europe to be determined.

    ICPLA 10th Symposium

    Short Title: ICPLA10 Location: Lafayette, LA, United States Date: 26-Feb-2004 - 29-Feb-2004 Contact Person: Martin Ball Contact Email: mjballlouisiana.edu URL: http://www.ucs.louisiana.edu/~mjb0372/ICPLA.html

    Call Deadline: 30-May-2003

    Linguistic Sub-field: Phonetics

    Meeting Description:

    The International Clinical Phonetics and Linguistics Association will be holding its 10th Symposium in Lafayette, Louisiana at Mardi Gras time 2004 (26-29 Feb). Papers in all areas of the field are welcome.

    The 10th meeting of the International Clinical Phonetics and Linguistics Assoc will take place in Lafayette, Louisiana in 2004, and the Organising Committee is now issuing the formal Call for Papers.

    The Conference will take place from Wednesday night 26 February 2004 until Saturday 29th. An innovation for ICPLA10 will be the introduction of a fourth plenary lecture, on Wednesday night, just before the welcoming buffet/reception. This plenary will be presented by Dr John W. Oller, Jr., and the other plenary speakers will be advertised soon.

    ICPLA10 has been timed to allow delegates to attend the Mardi Gras celebrations in Louisiana just before the conference starts. Mardi Gras parades and festivities take place, of course, in New Orleans, and Baton Rouge. But there are also many other towns in the Acadiana region of the state that hold celebrations. Lafayette itself hosts several parades, and arrangements will be made with the conference hotel to provide special rates for delegates deciding to come a day or two early. Full details on accommodations and costs will be available in the next couple of months, and members will be e-mailed. Details will also be made available on the ICPLA website.

    Call for Papers

    We now invite all ICPLA members to submit abstracts for consideration at ICPLA10. We do also welcome abstracts from non-members. Papers in all areas of our field are welcomed.

    Abstracts should be submitted electronically to mjballlouisiana.edu The abstract should be no longer than 350 words; please state whether you wish the abstract to be considered as an oral presentation (20 mins + 10 mins discussion) or a poster, or for either. As with ICPLA9, we hope to publish selected papers in 'Clinical Linguistics and Phonetics' and the 'Journal of Multilingual Communication Disorders'.

    Please provide abstracts in the following format: title; author(s) and affiliation(s); text of abstract; references (please keep to minimum); status (oral / poster / either); name and full postal address of communicating author, together with phone, fax, and e-mail details.

    Please submit abstracts by 30th May 2003. We aim to inform authors of the reviewers' decisions during July 2003. If you have any queries, please consult the Organising Committee on mjballlouisiana.edu
