Meeting Description:

The University of Ottawa linguistics department is pleased to announce that 
it will be hosting its second annual Ottawa's Conference for Linguistics
Undergraduates (OCLU) on December 3rd and 4th 2010! The goals of this 
conference are to promote undergraduate research and further the growth 
of the undergraduate linguistics community.

This conference has a couple of purposes.  The first, and most important, is 
to give undergraduate researchers the chance to present their original 
work. With competition for graduate school growing, it has become 
increasingly important for undergraduates to be able to speak in front of 
peer scholars, take constructive feedback and develop strong networking 
abilities. The aim of this conference is to do all three of these by allowing 
undergraduates, both nationally and internationally, the opportunity to meet 
and share their work with others.

Secondly, this conference will provide the opportunity for potential graduate
students to view our facilities and labs, meet our professors, speak with
current undergraduate and graduate students, and experience the city of 
Ottawa. 

Call For Papers

If you are an undergraduate student and are interested in participating, you 
are encouraged to submit an abstract for a 20-minute talk with a 5-minute 
question period on any topic relating to linguistics.  Abstracts must be a 
maximum of one-page in length (excluding references) and must be 
submitted online as a Word document to ottawa.undergradcon at gmail.com 
by Friday, October 29th, 2010.  If you have any questions, kindly direct 
them to ottawa.undergradcon at gmail.com
