[Kate White]

--*The deadline for submissions to our Colloquium, discussed below, has been
extended to August 25, 2011.*--


The Department of Slavic and East European Languages and Literatures and
the Center for Slavic and East European Studies at the Ohio State University
are pleased to announce the Ninth Graduate Colloquium on Slavic Linguistics.
  The colloquium will take place on October 22, 2011, at the Ohio State
University campus in Columbus, OH.



We are also very happy to announce that our keynote speaker will be Dr. Mark
Lauersdorf from the University of Kentucky. Dr. Lauersdorf’s research areas
include the historical sociolinguistics of Slovak and German, the creation
and use of corpora, and many areas involving the West Slavic languages,
including dialectology, language planning and indigenous minority languages.

We invite students and recent graduates working in all areas of Slavic,
Balkan, and East-European linguistics to submit abstracts. These areas
include but are not restricted to: phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax,
semantics, pragmatics, historical linguistics, sociolinguistics,
psycholinguistics and dialectology.

We encourage students working in both formal and functional frameworks to
participate in this event.  Interdisciplinary projects from the students in
related fields such as anthropology, sociology, psychology, and comparative
studies are welcome, as far as they are related to Slavic and East-European
languages.

Each presentation will be allowed 20 minutes plus 10 minutes for
discussion.

Please send abstracts (maximum 500 words) to Kate White (white.1648 at osu.edu
).

The abstracts should be anonymous. Please include your name, affiliation,
mailing address, and email address in the body of the email.

The deadline for abstract submission has been extended to August 25, 2011.

Accommodation with local graduate students will be available.

If you have any questions, please contact the organizers.
