Linguistic Field(s): Phonology; Syntax 

Meeting Description: 

'Parallel Domains: Locality in Syntax & Phonology and the Representation of 
Constituency' is a workshop in honor of the work of Jean-Roger Vergnaud. 
Its theoretical goal is to explore fundamental questions across both syntax 
and phonology, which broadly include issues of locality, movement, 
reconstruction, multidominance, (anti-)symmetry, agreement, and cyclic 
applications in both domains. 

Invited Speakers:

Noam Chomsky, Louis Goldstein, Morris Halle, Joost Kremers, Dominique 
Sportiche

help keep the List running by supporting all of our Student Editors for the 
coming year.

Drive 2011 site!

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and 
as such can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a 
registered 501(c) Non Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-
6005986. These donations can be offset against your federal and 
sometimes your state tax return (U.S. tax payers only). For more information 
visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact your financial advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will 
match any gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails 
your contacting your human resources department and sending us a form 
that the EMU Foundation fills in and returns to your employer. This is 
generally a simple administrative procedure that doubles the value of your 
gift to LINGUIST, without costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment 
to check if your company operates such a program.

Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
