CEDL Minority Scholar Survey
The Linguistic Society of America's Committee on Ethnic Diversity in
Linguistics (CEDL) is conducting a survey of minority scholars in the
field to determine how the recruitment and retention of minority
linguists might be improved. We are, therefore, asking undergraduate
students, graduate students, and faculty members in linguistics who
are members of minority groups in the US to participate in this
survey. For the purposes of this survey, the term 'minority' refers
to "members of racial and ethnic groups in the US that have been
historically disenfranchised in the US and are traditionally
underrepresented in higher education in general, and in linguistics
in particular." This includes, but is not limited to African Americans,
Mexican Americans, Puerto Ricans, and Native Americans.
To download the survey, please visit the CEDL website at:
http://www.lsadc.org/committees/index.php?aaa=ethnic.htm
The completed survey should be returned no later than Dec. 1, 2004.
