Endangered Languages and Computational Linguistics....

[Heather Souter]

Taanshi kiyawaw?  Hello.

I have a question for you all.  I have a student in a linguistics class for
which I am the TA who is interested possibly switching from engineering to
computational linguistics.  He has also show an interest in "making a
difference in the world" but needs to be able to eat once he is done his
degree....  Any suggestions on where he might go to school (nothing offered
at this college in terms  of computational linguistics) in Canada or
possibly the US?  And, any ideas on what he might study that could be of
particular help to our communities in terms of stabilizing and/ revitalizing
our languages AND would allow him to eat IF he doesn't want to become an
academic?

Thanks in advance for your ideas!  Kihchi-marsii!

Eekoshi pitamaa.
