Meeting Description:

The McGill Canadian Conference for Linguistics Undergraduates - McCCLU - will be held on March 13-15, 2015. It will again be hosted at McGill University, Montreal, by the Society of Linguistics Undergraduates of McGill (SLUM). The aim of this conference is to encourage original endeavors into the world of research as well as to enrich the present academic undergraduate community within the field of linguistics. Although McCCLU remains a smaller-scale conference, it gives students from all subfields of linguistics the opportunity to present their theses and to have them reviewed, often for the first time. Each participant will have 20 minutes to present their research, followed by a 10 minute question period.

McCCLU is a three day conference for undergraduate students in Linguistics across Canada and the United States. Students will present their research to their peers and professionals in the field. Two keynote speakers from the McGill Linguistics department will also discuss their research. Conference participants and attendees will be invited to social events throughout the course of the conference.

Call for Papers:

We are now calling for undergraduate students to submit abstracts for presentation at the conference on any subject matter within the domain of linguistics. Each abstract should detail material for a 20-minute presentation, with a 10-minute question period on issues raised afterward. Abstracts should be a maximum of one page in length (12 point font, 1 inch margins).

Please submit abstracts to mccclu2015gmail.com
