Dear Susbcribers,

All the LinguistList needs is $4213 more to reach our goal 
of $67,000.  Where else could you get such good value for 
the money as with LinguistList?  If you're an ordinary 
academic looking for a job, you'd have to pay $77.50 for a 
yearly subscription to the Chronicle of Higher Education.  
LINGUIST is more targeted just to linguistics jobs.  If 
you've ever used LinguistList to look for jobs, why not 
give us $77.50?  

You find out about conferences through LinguistList.  By 
finding out early, you save on early preregistration.  Why 
not send us half of what you saved by registering early?  

You've organized conferences using EasyAbs, thereby saving 
lots of clerical help.  How about sending us some of what 
you saved?

You've posted queries on LinguistList and gotten useful 
responses.  How much is that worth to you?

The LinguistList Advisors have ponied up again and again.  
Now it's your turn.

Subject: Are You an Undergraduate Advisor?



Dear Colleagues,

I'm a Linguist List advisor, but I'm also the undergraduate 
advisor for my department.  I have a whole routine I go through 
with each new student, of course, and at the end of the 
appointment I give them some materials about the field.  And 
one of the things I do at that point is I make sure they know 
about the Linguist List -- I give them the URL and tell them to 
check the website out if they haven't already -- and especially 
to check out the Student Portal.  

This is yet another way that Linguist List makes my life easier, 
and is another reason that I donate to the Linguist List fund 
drive.  If it makes your life easier too -- in any way -- please 
consider making a donation during our advisor's challenge.  

Any amount would be greatly appreciated!
