Submissions for the 2003 Mary R. Haas Award

SSILA annually presents the Mary R. Haas Award to a junior scholar for an 
unpublished manuscript (often a dissertation) that makes a
significant substantive contribution to our knowledge of the indigenous 
languages of the Western Hemisphere.  To be considered for the Haas Award 
manuscripts should be of monograph length and reflect substantial empirical 
research.  Typically, these are descriptive and issue-oriented grammars, 
topical studies, dictionaries, and text collections.  No academic 
affiliation is required of the author but holders of tenured faculty 
positions will not normally be eligible.  Manuscripts must be in English.

The award does not carry a stipend, but the selected manuscript is eligible 
for publication in the University of Nebraska Press series,
Studies in the Native Languages of the Americas, which is designed 
specifically for the Mary R. Haas Award.  The series is published in
association with the American Indian Studies Research Institute at Indiana 
University, and is edited by Douglas Parks.

The selection committee, under the chairmanship of the Immediate Past 
President, Leanne Hinton, is now accepting submissions for the 2003 Haas 
Award.  In order to be considered, five full copies of the manuscript must 
be sent to the committee, accompanied by a short
letter indicating the circumstances under which the work was prepared.  (If 
submitting five copies will cause financial hardship, special
arrangements can be made.)

Manuscripts should be mailed to:

                         Leanne Hinton
                         Dept. of Linguistics
                         1203 Dwinelle Hall
                         University of California
                         Berkeley, CA 94720-2650

Inquiries can be sent to Prof. Hinton at <hinton at socrates.berkeley.edu>.
The deadline for receipt of submissions is August 25, 2003.

The 2003 Haas Award will be presented to the winner at the annual meeting 
of SSILA, in Boston, January 2004.  In addition to Prof. Hinton
the members of the selection committee are Aaron Broadwell, Jane Hill, Paul 
Kroeber, and Douglas Parks (ex officio).
