Meeting Description:

Papers for this conference are invited in all areas of linguistics, (including 
TESOL), and especially in our conference topic: What is Experimental 
Syntax Good for? Our keynote speaker will be Dr. Grant Goodall.  Dr. 
Goodall received his graduate training from the Massachusetts Institute of 
Technology and the University of California, San Diego (UCSD). He is 
currently Professor of Linguistics at UCSD. Goodall's primary area of 
specialty is natural language syntax, with an established interest in applying 
linguistic research to the public realm, especially with regards to language 
teaching policy and practice.  His current research projects include Wh-
movement and inversion phenomena, processing effects in syntax, and 
experimental methods for studying syntax.  Before joining the faculty at 
UCSD, he worked at the University of Texas at El Paso and held visiting 
appointments at the Université de Genève (Switzerland) and the 
Universidad Nacional del Comahue (Argentina). 

Students from any educational institution are strongly encouraged to submit 
their research and share insights they have discovered in the field. 
Presenters can choose between oral and poster presentations. Oral 
presentations will last 20 minutes with 5 minutes for discussion and 
questions. An allotment of time will be set aside for poster presentations and 
discussion. This is a great opportunity to develop professional skills. The 
best presentations will be awarded the Yumi Nakamura Memorial Prize in 
Linguistics (up to a total of  $1000.00 USD in prize money). Poster and oral 
presentations are considered, accepted, and judged as equal counterparts. 

Call For Papers
