FUND DRIVE 2003

To give you an incentive to donate, many of our Supporting Publishers have generously donated some amazing linguistic prizes. As a donor you are automatically entered into this prize draw. To find out what's on offer and the rules etc., visit:

http://linguistlist.org/prizedraw.html

We still have a long way to go, however, to reach our target of $50,000. Please make a donation at:

The LINGUIST List depends on the generous contributions from subscribers like you; we would not be able to operate without your help.

The moderators, staff, and student editors at LINGUIST would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your continuous support.

Please keep conferences announcement as short as you can; LINGUIST will not post conference announcements which in our opinion are excessively long.

To post to LINGUIST, use our convenient web form at http://linguistlist.org/LL/posttolinguist.html.
