Here are the announcements for this year's Harvard Undergraduate Linguistics Colloquium. Of all of the undergraduate Linguistics conferences, this one is the closest. The deadline for submissions is March 11, the conference itself is April 9-10. If you have a research project you have done (even if it was as part of a course), consider submitting an abstract. And even if you don't submit an abstract, you might well find it interesting to attend (and it's quite nearby). Attached to this email are both the registration form if you wish to attend, and the call for abstract submissions. If you have a project you'd be interested in talking about at this conference, feel free to contact the faculty member you worked with (or any of the Linguistics faculty members) for advice. And, speaking of submitting abstracts to undergraduate Linguistics conferences: There will be more discussion of this (and also details about the several other regularly held undergraduate Linguistics conferences) at the "Linguistics Opportunities at BU" event sponsored by BULA next week on Thu Feb 24 (6:30pm, CAS 203), see http://bula.bu.edu for more details. Also, don't forget the upcoming "Linguistics Extravaganza" the following week (Wed Mar 2 in STH 325), which will feature a discussion of Linguistics opportunities abroad starting at 4pm, followed by a general Linguistics open house at 4:30pm, with refreshments and information about the Linguistics major, minor, and courses, as well as the new Linguistics & Philosophy major. See http://ling.bu.edu for more details. -Paul Begin forwarded message:
