- Migration
- Translation studies
- Raciolinguistics 
- Language policy and planning 

Keynote Speaker: Dr. Maya Angela Smith, Assoc. Prof. of French at the
University of Washington Senegalese in the Diaspora: What Sociolinguistic
Interviews Can Tell Us about Language, Race, Mobility, and Belonging.

The scope of the conference is not limited by region, language, or time
period.  Proposals involving languages taught by the Department of Languages,
Literatures, and Cultures (ASL, Arabic, Chinese, French, German, Ancient
Greek, Biblical and Modern Hebrew, Italian, Japanese, Latin, Portuguese,
Russian, Spanish and Swahili) are especially encouraged.  Proposals are
welcomed across disciplines, from scholars of languages and literatures,
education, geography, history, psychology, anthropology, and sociology. 
Please send an abstract of 250 words by email to: Prof. Francisco Martínez
Ibarra (fmartinezibarra at towson.edu).  Please include your name, institution
affiliation, day telephone, and email address.  Please note that Conference
papers must be in English and limited to 20 minutes.
Proposals for panels with multiple speakers are also welcomed provided they
fit within the 90-minute time frame of each session. 

We are tentatively planning this conference in-person. We will consider
virtual and hybrid options if needed as the time approaches. We are
considering publishing the conference proceedings, pending participants’
interest. 

Faculty at all ranks, as well as graduate students, are encouraged to
participate. We will offer discounted hotel rooms near campus, and a graduated
scale of conference fees.

Deadline for submissions is December 1, 2022.
