program! Registration is available online, or by postal correspondence with the
Indiana University Linguistics Department. Those wishing to attend are
encouraged to register before April 10 to take advantage of reduced rates.

Elipsis and the Organization of the Grammar.''  In the afternoon, ?eljko
Bo?kovi? (University of Connecticut) speaks on ''Issues in Locality, Agreement
and the Structure of the NP'' at 1:45, Norvin Richards (MIT) on ''Prosody and
Syntax'' at 3:15, and Jason Merchant (University of Chicago) on ''Linguistic
Interfaces and the Architecture of the Grammar'' at 4:45.

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as 
such can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 
501(c) Non Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These 
donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax return 
(U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact 
your financial advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match 
any gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your 
contacting your human resources department and sending us a form that the 
EMU Foundation fills in and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple 
administrative procedure that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without 
costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if your company 
operates such a program.
