CALL FOR PAPERS
STUDENT EVENING SESSIONS

Students (undergraduates and Ph.D. students) participating in the special 
DGfS/LSA Summer School in Duesseldorf are invited to present a paper in 
student evening sessions. There will be two sessions, each consisting of 
two thirty-minute talks, followed by a discussant's comment and further 
discussion from the floor.

We invite anonymous abstracts for papers that (a) present new empirical 
data from any field of linguistics, and (b) discuss to what extent these 
data call for a functional or formal explanation.

Abstracts must not exceed one page in length (11 point font, 2cm margins, 
single-spaced). A second page is allowed for data and references. Authors 
may submit no more than one individual or joint abstract. Joint abstracts 
should designate one address for communication with the organizers.

Programm committee: Barbara Stiebels (Chair, Duesseldorf, Ger), Kai von 
Fintel (MIT, Cambridge, MA, USA), Martin Haspelmath (MPI, Leipzig, Ger), 
Richard Wiese (Marburg, Ger), Ellen Prince (UPennsylvania, USA)

The anonymous abstract should preferably be sent as an e-mail attachment in 
one of the following formats: pdf, rtf, postscript, or plain text. For any 
unusual fonts, please attach the font file. No other formats will be 
accepted, electronic submissions should be sent to the following e-mail 
address: sschool at phil-fak.uni-duesseldorf.de

When writing to our postal address (cf. below), please add the keyword 
"Student Sessions" to the address.

acceptance will be received by May 31, 2002. The final version of the 
paper, which is sent to the discussant, must reach us by July 1, 2002. The 
discussant will be selected from the teacher's panel of the Summer School

This is a rare and perfect opportunity for students to present their own 
research. We hope that lots of you will take advantage of this.
