The theme for the conference is Linguistic Gumbo: Challenges in Multilanguage
Contact. We seek 20-minute papers or panels of 100 minutes addressing problems
in studying language contact, especially where three or more varieties are
involved. Topics might include Diasporic Languages, Creole Genesis, Colonial
or Postcolonial Languages, Micro- or Sub-regional Dialect Variation, and
Language in Urban Environments, among others. In addition, we welcome topics
suitable to the New Orleans setting, such as Language and Music, Studies of
New Orleans or Louisiana French or English, and Native American languages of
the region. In the open tradition of SECOL, we welcome any of the wide range
of methodologies current in linguistics, as well as topics in general
linguistics and the teaching of linguistics.

Call for Papers:

Abstracts should not exceed 500 words, excluding title and references. Authors
may submit up to two abstracts, one individual and one joint. Due to our
compressed timeline, we will begin accepting abstracts immediately and review
them on a rolling basis, responding within three to five days after
submission. Submit your proposal via EasyAbs at
http://linguistlist.org/easyabs/secol2016.

Hotel and registration information will be coming soon. Email the conference
at secol83 at secol.org if you have questions. We look forward to a lively
meeting!
