Pop-up Mentoring Program at BUCLD 49
by Language Development, BU Conference on 21 Apr '24

21 Apr '24

Hello all, We are excited to participate again this year in the LSA Committee on Gender Equity in Linguistics (COGEL) Pop-up Mentoring Program. All BUCLD 49 attendees are welcome to join! Sign up before Thursday, October 31, 2024, 11:59 PM (EDT, UTC-4). More information: BUCLD 49 is proud to host a Pop-Up Mentoring Program<http://genderinlinguistics.org/pump> (PUMP) event. PUMP (sponsored by the LSA Committee on Gender Equity<http://genderinlinguistics.org/>) provides on-site, one-off mentoring meetings at linguistics conferences around the world. PUMP matches one or more mentees with mentors who can provide quick but personalized career advice to linguists at any stage, in any location, and in any career: anyone can be a mentee or mentor, the more the merrier. You can register as a mentee here<https://forms.gle/c6H69QEskm1ePD7JA>, and as a mentor here<https://forms.gle/avaCdAWcjwSJfxQD6>. We almost always have a lot of mentee interest so we especially encourage participants to apply as mentors if they think they can. Anyone can be a mentor! PhD students can mentor MA students, postdocs can be a wonderful resource for senior grad students, Assistant professors can mentor postdocs, and so on. We keep career stage and interests in mind when matching mentors and mentees. The deadline for registering as a mentee or a mentor for this event is Thursday, October 31, 2024, 11:59 PM (EDT, UTC-4). After you register, you will receive an email matching you with your mentor or mentee, with details about how to meet. Please email langconf(a)bu.edu<mailto:langconf@bu.edu> with any questions about the PUMP event. PUMP@BUCLD 49 is scheduled on Saturday, November 9, 2024, 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM (EDT, UTC -4). Alternatively, matched participants are welcome to agree on a different time to meet. Looking forward to seeing you at the event! Aditya Yedetore BUCLD 49 Co-Organizer

BUCLD 48 Reminders
by Language Development, BU Conference on 27 Oct '23

27 Oct '23

Dear BUCLD Attendees, We are less than a week away from our first-ever in-person & semi-online conference! We want to remind you of a few things before you arrive. 1. We will have representatives from the NSF and the NIH who are available for consultation appointments. Appointments can be scheduled using these links: NIH Signup: https://forms.office.com/g/cAis6uUjvC NSF Signup: https://outlook.office365.com/owa/calendar/NSFBookingsLinguisticsandDLIDELP… 2. BUCLD hosts PUMP (Pop Up Mentoring Program) We are currently looking for mentors to volunteer to sign up! Due to far more mentees than mentors, we are at risk of cancelling this year’s PUMP. Serving as a mentor is a one time, one hour commitment and a great way to support a junior scholar. If you are interested, please consider signing up here: https://www.bu.edu/bucld/conference-info/pump/ Deadline is October 31st. 3. Poster printing If you need poster printing, the Fed Ex on campus<https://local.fedex.com/en-us/ma/boston/office-5012> (115 Cummington Mall) offers same-day printing. As a reminder, we recommend a poster size of 36” width x 48" height. 4. Information for talk presenters As a reminder, all talk presenters are responsible for bringing a device to present their slides. We require HDMI connection- if you do not have an HDMI port on your device, please bring your own adaptor. 5. Masks are available We are offering face masks for anybody who needs them. They will be available at the Registration Desk during the conference days. We look forward to welcoming you to campus next week! The forecast appears to be sunny and pleasant, and we hope you will enjoy the lovely Fall scenery in Boston. Warm regards, The BUCLD 48 Organizing Committee
