Dear colleagues,

Last year, thanks to your assistance, we were able to recruit an excellent
pool of candidates for our NSF Research Experience for Undergraduates Site
Intersection of Linguistics, Language and Culture Fellowship in NY. We are
excited to announce that the next round of recruitment is now underway! We
would be grateful if you could distribute the information about our program
again this year. The application is now online, and the deadline to apply is
April 15, 2021 for the 2021-2022 program:
https://undergrad-language-research.org/program-description-and-application/

We are again recruiting talented undergraduate students residing in the New
York tri-state area, largely from (but not limited to) historically
disadvantaged groups, to partake in a year-long program to engage in research
on language(s) and benefit from workshops that will help them prepare for the
next steps in their educational journey. The 18 Students selected for the
program will be awarded a stipend of $5,200 a year for participation in the
program.

All undergraduate students who are U.S. citizens or permanent residents, who
will still be enrolled as undergraduate students in college/university in
2021-2022, and who reside in New York are welcome to apply. We especially
encourage applications from students who are members of underrepresented
groups in the Speech-Language-Hearing-Communication and Cognitive Sciences,
which include but are not limited to: 1. students who are racial/ethnic
minorities, first-generation college students, women, and veterans, and those
who are or have been enrolled in community colleges, 2. students who are
familiar with a Language Other Than English (LOTE), a Sign Language, and/or
with varieties of English that differ from Mainstream American English (e.g.
African American English, Jamaican English etc.), 3.  students who have
experienced educational or economic disadvantages, or other personal
circumstances that may have impeded their transition to the next stage of
training towards a science career.

We would be grateful if you could post the attached flyer in your department
and share it with strong potential applicants/students at your institution,
and with other colleagues. 

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Yours,
--
