4th Annual Harvard Undergraduate Linguistics Colloquium

Call for Papers
for the 4th Annual Undergraduate Linguistics Colloquium at Harvard
on the Harvard University campus, Cambridge, Massachusetts
April 22-23, 2006

The colloquium was initiated with the goal of developing an intercollegiate community of linguistics enthusiasts at the undergraduate level. In keeping with this broad aim, the conference is open to all interested students regardless of area of interest or level of training. Professor Marc Hauser of Harvard University will be featured as our keynote speaker, and undergraduates will also have the opportunity to present their own research. Student submissions are encouraged in a range of linguistic disciplines including, but not limited to, syntax, phonology, historical linguistics, sociolinguistics, and psycholinguistics.

Undergraduates of all levels of expertise are invited to submit one-page abstracts proposing a roundtable discussion or a talk of not more than twenty minutes. (All participants must be pursuing a B.A., B.S., or equivalent degree.)

E-mailed abstracts (and questions!) will be accepted at:
bdsamuel@fas.harvard.edu

The final deadline for receipt of all submissions is March 17, 2006.

Registration information will be available at the Harvard Undergraduate Linguistics Group website.

We look forward to your contributions, and we hope to see you in April!
