Dear LSA member,

Nominations for the following awards are due to the Secretariat by the
close of business on Tuesday, July 1.   Please consider nominating yourself
or a colleague for one of the following awards, which honor contributions
made by LSA members to the Society, to the discipline of linguistics, to
language communities or to the public understanding of our work.

   - the Early Career Award, given for a new scholar who has made an
   outstanding contribution to the field of linguistics;
   - the Excellence in Community Linguistics Award, for outstanding
   contributions that members of language communities (typically outside the
   academic sphere of professional linguists) make for the benefit of their
   community's language;
   - the Kenneth L. Hale Award, for outstanding linguistic scholarship
   undertaken by a junior or senior scholar that documents a particular
   endangered or no longer spoken language or language family;
   - the Linguistic Service Award, for distinguished service to the Society
   and the discipline;
   - the newly-established Linguistics Journalism Award, which honors the
   journalist whose work, published between June 1, 2013 and May 31, 2014,
   best represents linguistics;
   - the Linguistics, Language, and the Public Award, for a body of work
   that has had a demonstrable impact on the public awareness of language
   and/or linguistics; and
   - the Victoria A. Fromkin Lifetime Service Award, for individuals who
   have performed extraordinary service to the Society and the discipline
   throughout their career.

To nominate yourself or a colleague for any of these awards, send an e-mail
to lsa at lsadc.org <lsa at lsadc.org?subject=2015%20Award%20Nomination> by the
