NSF Linguistics & Documenting Endangered Languages Program Officer job announcement

[D. Terence Langendoen]

  Dear friends on ILAT,
Both Doug Whalen and I will be leaving the National Science Foundation by the
end of this summer. NSF has placed job announcements on its website to replace
us, one to direct the Cognitive Neuroscience Program, and the other to work
with Joan Maling to direct the Linguistics Program and the Documenting
Endangered Languages Program. An announcement for the Linguistics + DEL
position has appeared on the LINGUIST List at
http://linguistlist.org/issues/19/19-665.html[1]. The following is the text of
an announcement that will appear soon on the Linguistic Society of America
site. If you have any interest in this position, I encourage you to read the
announcement on the NSF site (link given below), making sure to open all the
tabs. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. Thanks, Terry
