[Lgpolicy] Recognizing Hal Schiffman

Tue May 2 10:57:41 UTC 2023

Dear colleagues,

The Lgpolicy archives
<https://listserv.linguistlist.org/pipermail/lgpolicy-list/> at Linguist
List are working again.  I thought it would be fitting for the first
substantive archived post on the updated version of Lgpolicy to recognize
Hal Schiffman (1938-2022), the list founder who managed it for over 20
years.  Below is a bibliography of his works compiled by UMBC TESOL alumna
Sara Clement.

Best,
Francis
