I think you'd probably be safe making about the number of handouts as there are papers being given at the meeting as a whole. Since there are competing sessions, maybe even fewer would work. I'm not anticipating a gigantic turnout for the Siouan papers outside of the presenters plus about 3 or 4 additional. But who knows? ________________________________ From: owner-siouan at lists.colorado.edu on behalf of Bryan Gordon Sent: Tue 10/23/2007 2:42 PM To: siouan at lists.colorado.edu Subject: Re: MALC this coming weekend. > My friend Kevin from Minnesota will be at MALC.

Living here in Lawrence, allows me a certain freedom of mobility and selection of schedule. I myself will not attend the dean's address, and will attend only the Siouan presentations and perhaps 1 or 2 others if convenient to the day. There may be others who will prefer to be selective to their particular interests as well. As such, I should think, the best time to distribute Bob's residence directions, information and pair up for the ride to the Friday night cookout may best be done during the Friday morning Siouan presentations. And another thought, namely, what will Bob have each of us to bring to the cookout, such as, drinks, desserts, chips, ice, whatever?

So far I'm the only one who seems to have gotten a parking hang-tag (and with my "Emeritus" sticker, I don't even need it). Guess people will have to pick them up at the registration desk. Campus is over a mile from Spring Hill Suites. The motel is right downtown and campus requires motorized transportation unless you're really young and athletic. I can pick up several in the a.m. for the trip. Weather will probably be OK with highs in the 50s or low 60s and lows in the low 40s at night.

Message-ID: All: I hope everyone agrees that the rather impromptu meeting with the Mid America Linguistics Conference in Lawrence was a success. We had a number of very nice papers and it was, for me at least, a lot of fun. The papers from the conference will appear at some point on the University of Kansas Linguistics Dept. website in the KU Working Papers series. I'm assuming the organizers will communicate deadlines, style, etc. As for future meetings of the "real" SACC (= SCLC or whatever), everyone was enthusiastic about Mark's proposal for 2009, and he is working out the dates, etc. for that. Jill Greer at Missouri Southern State Univ. in Joplin proposed hosting the conference this coming year, 2008, sometime in May or June. This is quite close to the Quapaw population in NE Oklahoma. I assume she will be contacting us with additional information if she gets agreement from her institution. John Boyle offered to host the 2010 meeting at his institution, and we look forward to hearing more about that as time goes on. In response to Johannes' question about the comparative grammar project, we discussed this a bit and I think everyone is eager to continue it. Linda Cumberland, our designated editor, was fully occupied with her D.E.L. grant for work with her Assiniboine texts this past year, but that is over now and she has returned to her work with Justin at the Kaw Nation. This means that people like me, who have been a bit lazy about revising their promised papers, will need to get busy and think about getting material to Linda. And speaking of my comparative verb morphology paper, although I did quite a bit of revision on my verbal prefix paper last Winter (and nothing at all since), I have about decided that the companion piece on post-verbal enclitics should be more of a co-authored work. The post verbal morphology is so complex in the various languages, and so little of it is clearly cognate from group to group (as opposed to the prefixes, which are regularly cognate), that it would be best if each of us wrote up a (short?) survey of it for his/her language. I'd be happy to work whatever comparative magic I can on the results, but there will be far less cognacy than among the prefixes. (So the results should be all the more "interesting".) It was great fun seeing everybody again and hearing new research. We missed some old friends that we hope to see again next Spring, and we had an excellent new contribution from one of John Boyle's students, whom we hope to see more of.

Message-ID: I very much doubt that there will be a whole lot of non-participants outside of KU students and faculty at the meetings. I think you'd probably be safe making about the number of handouts as there are papers being given at the meeting as a whole. Since there are competing sessions, maybe even fewer would work. I'm not anticipating a gigantic turnout for the Siouan papers outside of the presenters plus about 3 or 4 additional.

Living here in Lawrence, allows me a certain freedom of mobility and selection of schedule. I myself will not attend the dean's address, and will attend only the Siouan presentations and perhaps 1 or 2 others if convenient to the day. There may be others who will prefer to be selective to their particular interests as well. As such, I should think, the best time to distribute Bob's residence directions, information and pair up for the ride to the Friday night cookout may best be done during the Friday morning Siouan presentations.

So far I'm the only one who seems to have gotten a parking hang-tag (and with my "Emeritus" sticker, I don't even need it). Guess people will have to pick them up at the registration desk. Campus is over a mile from Spring Hill Suites. The motel is right downtown and campus requires motorized transportation unless you're really young and athletic. I can pick up several in the a.m. for the trip. Weather will probably be OK with highs in the 50s or low 60s and lows in the low 40s at night.

However June 11 is a holiday here which allows me to stay away from my teaching obligations. So I would opt for the weekend Friday June 12 through Sunday June 14. What is important for me is that I know the date and the locations some time in advance in order to be able to apply for money and to make arrangements for an overseas trip. I would like to add a suggestion. I am not up to date with regard to the project of a Comparative Siouan Grammar, but this project was inaugurated enthusiastically in Billing,MT last year. We had pretty good papers there and also made far reaching plans for two volumes. Since then, it became so quiet that I am somewhat concerned this project may pass away without any attempt to revitalize it. I would very much regret this. Therefore, I suggest that we add another workshop on Comparative Siouan Grammar in order to give the whole enterprise a new push. I would volunteer to help to prepare this workshop as far as I can from the Old World.

I second Johannes' motion to include another workshop on Comparative Siouan Grammar in the 2009 meeting and/or at the 2008 one. Speaking of which, picking a date and generally firming up plans for the 2008 meeting seems like a priority ... is that at a stage where it can be publicly announced? Catherine >>> "Johannes Helmbrecht" 10/29/2007 4:40:08 AM >>> Dear Mark, both weekends are in the midst of our term in Germany, so it does not make a difference. However June 11 is a holiday here which allows me to stay away from my teaching obligations. So I would opt for the weekend Friday June 12 through Sunday June 14. What is important for me is that I know the date and the locations some time in advance in order to be able to apply for money and to make arrangements for an overseas trip. I would like to add a suggestion. I am not up to date with regard to the project of a Comparative Siouan Grammar, but this project was inaugurated enthusiastically in Billing,MT last year. We had pretty good papers there and also made far reaching plans for two volumes. Since then, it became so quiet that I am somewhat concerned this project may pass away without any attempt to revitalize it. I would very much regret this. Therefore, I suggest that we add another workshop on Comparative Siouan Grammar in order to give the whole enterprise a new push. I would volunteer to help to prepare this workshop as far as I can from the Old World.

URL: From rankin at ku.edu Mon Oct 29 15:39:11 2007 From: rankin at ku.edu (Rankin, Robert L) Date: Mon, 29 Oct 2007 10:39:11 -0500 Subject: Report from MALC. Message-ID: All: I hope everyone agrees that the rather impromptu meeting with the Mid America Linguistics Conference in Lawrence was a success. We had a number of very nice papers and it was, for me at least, a lot of fun. The papers from the conference will appear at some point on the University of Kansas Linguistics Dept. website in the KU Working Papers series. I'm assuming the organizers will communicate deadlines, style, etc. As for future meetings of the "real" SACC (= SCLC or whatever), everyone was enthusiastic about Mark's proposal for 2009, and he is working out the dates, etc. for that. Jill Greer at Missouri Southern State Univ. in Joplin proposed hosting the conference this coming year, 2008, sometime in May or June. This is quite close to the Quapaw population in NE Oklahoma. I assume she will be contacting us with additional information if she gets agreement from her institution. John Boyle offered to host the 2010 meeting at his institution, and we look forward to hearing more about that as time goes on. In response to Johannes' question about the comparative grammar project, we discussed this a bit and I think everyone is eager to continue it. Linda Cumberland, our designated editor, was fully occupied with her D.E.L. grant for work with her Assiniboine texts this past year, but that is over now and she has returned to her work with Justin at the Kaw Nation. This means that people like me, who have been a bit lazy about revising their promised papers, will need to get busy and think about getting material to Linda. And speaking of my comparative verb morphology paper, although I did quite a bit of revision on my verbal prefix paper last Winter (and nothing at all since), I have about decided that the companion piece on post-verbal enclitics should be more of a co-authored work. The post verbal morphology is so complex in the various languages, and so little of it is clearly cognate from group to group (as opposed to the prefixes, which are regularly cognate), that it would be best if each of us wrote up a (short?) survey of it for his/her language. I'd be happy to work whatever comparative magic I can on the results, but there will be far less cognacy than among the prefixes. (So the results should be all the more "interesting".) It was great fun seeing everybody again and hearing new research. We missed some old friends that we hope to see again next Spring, and we had an excellent new contribution from one of John Boyle's students, whom we hope to see more of.

I am sorry I could not come, but I just got back from two months of fieldwork in the Alaska bush, so I had to be with my family for a while. Missed you guys, and Kansas!
