Hello BULA list. I've got two announcements of upcoming undergraduate
Linguistics conferences for your consideration.
The first one is at McGill, and was announced earlier -- this is a
reminder, the deadline for abstracts is coming up, February 9. The
conference itself will be the weekend of March 6.
The second one is at Cornell, the deadline for sending an abstract to
that conference is March 6. The conference itself will be April 4-5.

McGill’s Canadian Conference for Linguistics Undergraduates is still
looking for abstract submissions from students who would like to
present a 20-minute talk with a 10-minute question period on their
research on topics related to linguistics.
McCCLU is also looking for students to participate in our poster
session to be held during the conference. The poster session is open
to all student research in linguistics. If you have written a paper or
done interesting research in linguistics but don’t feel you could give
a whole 20-minute talk on your topic, the poster session is for you.
We will also consider posters presenting research that is still in its
preliminary stages and may not have solid results by the beginning of
March as long as the expected results are stated in the abstract for
the poster
Abstracts for both 20-minute talks and for posters should be a maximum
of one-page in length and should be sent electronically to mccclu2009(a)gmail.com
by February 9th, 2009. If you would like to just be considered for
the poster session please indicate so in your e-mail.
If you do not wish to present your research but would still like to
participate in McCCLU please join us! We will have professors Heather
Goad and Bernhard Schwarz as our guest speakers and have lots of fun
events planned throughout the weekend. Visit our website
www.mccclu.com for more information. Online pre-registration will
begin soon!
Thanks,
Kate McCurdy
