the author. It will be evaluated on the basis of clarity, significance to
the field, and substantive contribution. The paper must not exceed 10,000
words for the Gumperz graduate essay prize; 8000 for the thesis or
equivalent category of the undergraduate prize; 4000 for the course paper

The undergraduate winner will receive a cash award, a certificate of
accomplishment, and a small travel grant to the AAA meeting. The graduate
award winner will receive a cash award, a small travel grant to present
their paper at the annual AAA meeting, and an invitation to submit the
paper for consideration for publication with the *Journal of Linguistic
