Meeting Description:

The Slavic Linguistics Society (SLS) is a professional organization devoted to
the systematic and scholarly study of the Slavic languages. The organization
brings together academics from Europe and North America (and elsewhere)
through an annual conference that alternates between North American and
European institutions, a mailing list, and other activities. It seeks to
promote dialogue across different sub-disciplines of linguistics and
theoretical frameworks.

Membership in the Slavic Linguistics Society is open to anyone, regardless of
academic rank or employment. We particularly encourage graduate students to
join (there is a reduced student membership fee!), and to become involved with
the activities of the organization.


Call for Papers:

We invite you to submit an abstract to the 15th annual meeting of the Slavic
Linguistics Society on the campus of Indiana University, Bloomington,
September 4–6, 2020.

Keynote speakers:

Joanna Błaszczak (University of Wrocław)
Željko Bošković (University of Connecticut)
Małgorzata Ćavar (Indiana University)
Maria Polinsky (University of Maryland)

Papers dealing with any aspect of Slavic linguistics and within any framework
are appropriate, as well as those that represent cross-disciplinary
approaches(sociolinguistics, computational linguistics, language acquisition,
etc.). This year submissions in SLA are particularly welcome. All talks are
for 20 minutes, plus 10 minutes for discussion.

GUIDELINES FOR SUBMISSION OF ABSTRACTS:

We appreciate current visa issues, as well as the need to plan your travel,
and so we will make an effort to accept abstracts on an on-going basis. What
this means is that in the middle of February, as well as after the official
April 10 deadline, we will review all newly-received abstracts. Your abstract
should:

- Be anonymous
- Be submitted in PDF format, with all non-standard fonts embedded
- Be no longer than two pages including references, figures, and data
(single-spaced with 1-inch margins, 12-point text, preferably Times New Roman)

As appropriate, identify the framework, describe the methodology, explain how
the data are analyzed—-in other words, please be as concrete and specific as
possible in describing your work.

Abstracts should be submitted using EasyAbs:
http://linguistlist.org/easyabs/sls15in2020. If you are a student, under the
“Institution” field please also include that information (in order to be
considered for a student travel grant and/or the Charles E. Townsend Award).

- An individual may submit at most one single and one co-authored paper
- Up-to-date SLS membership is required for presenting at the annual meeting
