Meeting Description:

SCULC (Southern California Undergraduate Linguistics Conference) will be held
again in April 2018 at the University of California, Los Angeles by the
Linguistics Department and the undergraduate-run linguistics society, Bruin
Linguists. Founded in 2010 by Bruin Linguists, SCULC was established to create
a collaborative and educational environment for the undergraduate linguistics
community. Throughout the years, it has been entirely student-run and free for
all participants, presenters, and guests, supported by contributions from the
linguistics community, the UCLA Linguistics Department, and individuals
working to help enhance and expand the experience of undergraduates in
linguistics. 

Call for Papers:

SCULC is looking for undergraduate presenters from any university to submit
their research for presentation. Undergraduate students at all levels are
encouraged to submit abstracts for 10-15 minute presentations or for a poster
session. Students who have recently graduated but have not yet entered a
graduate program are welcome to submit abstracts. You can submit abstracts for
both a presentation and a poster but they must be on different research
projects.

We also invite graduate students, lecturers, and other researchers to submit
proposals for keynote talks.

Abstract Submission Link: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=sculc2018 

Abstract Submission Guidelines:

Please submit an abstract for your research work via easychair by February 16,
2018 11:59 PST.

Research from all subfields, in both applied and theoretical work, are
welcome.  Research in progress is fine too.
The abstract should be no more than 500 words, not including references. 
Please make sure the abstract is in a PDF format and that there is no
identification of yourself in the abstract (anonymized submission). 
If you are submitting something as part of work on a greater research project
with a team or a professor, be prepared to submit verification from the PI
that they are aware you are submitting this work if your abstract is accepted.

Abstracts that do not follow these guidelines will not be considered. Accepted
submissions will be announced in early to mid-March. Please keep in mind that
these abstracts and potential presentations will not be published. Travel
expenses are the responsibility of the presenter.

If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to contact the
organizers at sculc2018 at easychair.org or bruinlinguists at gmail.com . Be sure to
specify in the subject line that your correspondence is related to SCULC 2018.
