Subject:Thanks for a great ALS!

On behalf of the Arabic Linguistics Society, I would like to thank the
hosts and participants of the 22nd Annual Symposium on Arabic
Linguistics, held at the University of Maryland, College Park, March
8-9, 2008. The hospitality and assiduousness of Professor Alaa Elgibali,
Local Coordinator, created the perfect atmosphere for exchanging ideas
and disseminating research. Thanks to Professor Elgibali, the program
included twenty papers with five distinguished keynote speakers: Elabbas
Benmamoun, Mushira Eid, Jonathan Owens, Yassir Suleiman, and Manfred
Woidich. Special thanks to Dr. Saleh Nusairat and Ridha Krizi for their
diligent work on the conference program and logistics. The conference
would not have been possible without their hard work.

The conference was sponsored by the Arabic Linguistics Society.
Additional support was provided by the School of Languages, Literatures,
and Cultures, the Center for the Advanced Study of Language, and the
National Foreign Language Center at the University of Maryland. The
conference owes its success to this support.

I would like to thank the conference participants for their papers,
comments, and questions. Your research has made a significant
contribution to the field, and your active participation has enriched
our academic community.

I look forward to seeing you and many more other participants at our
next annual meeting at the University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee in March
2009. Professor Hamid Ouali will be our host and local coordinator.

Thank you,
Mustafa Mugahzy
