<div class=""><font face="HelveticaNeue" class="">Dear members and friends of the Society for Linguistic Anthropology,</font></div>
<div class=""><font face="HelveticaNeue" class=""><br class="">
</font></div>
<div class=""><font face="HelveticaNeue" class="">I am writing to update you on the SLA schedule at the upcoming Baltimore AAA meetings. This year, given expectations of a smaller conference turnout, the AAA is requiring all board and business meetings to
be held virtually in October and November <i class="">before</i> the conference takes place. I have listed the times of the three SLA virtual meetings below. Please put the Language and Social Justice Meeting and the SLA Business Meeting on your calendars
and join us if you can!</font></div>
<div class=""><font face="HelveticaNeue" class=""><br class="">
</font></div>
<div class=""><font face="HelveticaNeue" class="">The virtual SLA Business Meeting is open to all who are interested and will take place on
<b class="">Monday, November 1st, 6-8 pm ET. </b>As usual, the meeting will feature annual reports from the extended board on SLA activities conducted during the 2021 year. However, it will
<u class="">not</u> include the usual announcement of SLA-sponsored awards. Instead, all SLA awards will be announced at the (new) Society for Linguistic Anthropology Annual Awards Ceremony, to be held at the Baltimore AAA meetings on
<b class="">Friday, November 19, 8:00-9:15 pm ET</b>. The SLA Awards Ceremony will be followed by a cash bar reception, concluding at 11 pm. Awards will include: SLA Undergraduate Paper Prize, SLA Public Outreach and Community Service Award, John Gumperz Graduate
Student Essay Prize, New Voices Book Prize, and the Sapir Book Prize.</font></div>
<div class=""><font face="HelveticaNeue" class=""><br class="">
</font></div>
<div class=""><font face="HelveticaNeue" class="">If you have any questions about the pre-conference or conference line-up, please feel free to email me at
<a href="mailto:kira.hall@colorado.edu" class="">kira.hall@colorado.edu</a>. I will be sending out more information about all events in the weeks to come. The zoom links will be announced by the SLA and AAA shortly before each of the virtual meetings. </font></div>
