<div><font face="Times" size="+2" color="#000000">The program for
IGALA3, the third biennial conference of the International Gender and
Language Association being held at Cornell University 5-7 June, has
just been posted at http:/ling.cornell.edu/igala3. In addition
to plenary addresses from Deborah Cameron, Norma Mendoza-Denton, and
Niko Besnier, there is a plenary panel, "Studying Language and
Gender: International Perspectives," that is moderated by Keith
Walters (US) and includes talks from Ana Marķa Martirena
(Argentina), Momoko Nakamura (Japan), Binh Nguyen (Vietnam), and
Fatima Sadiqi (Morocco). And there are 40 oral presentations
(presented in two parallel sessions) and 50 poster-based presentations
that were accepted on the basis of refereed abstracts.
Topics cover a wide range of issues in the general area of language,
gender, and sexuality studies, and presenters come not only from the
US and Canada and other English-speaking countries (the UK, Australia,
New Zealand) but also from many other places (the list includes at
least France, The Netherlands, Belgium, Estonia, Russia, Cameroon,
Lebanon, South Africa, Brazil, Malaysia). Presentations begin at 9:30
on Saturday, 5 June, and conclude at 12:55 on Monday, 7 June.
Post-conference workshops will be held 7 June, 2:15-5:15 pm. The
workshop on teaching language and gender is facilitated by Janet
Holmes and Marisol del Teso Craviotto, that on research ethics is
facilitated by Penelope Eckert and Tanya Matthews, and that on
phonetic research is facilitated by Lisa Lavoie and Rob Podesva.
Full descriptions of the workshops will be posted online very soon,
and we have already begun registering people who have expressed
interest in them. </font></div>
