Meeting Description:

The Department of Linguistics at the University of British Columbia is pleased
to host the 37th annual Northwest Linguistics Conference (NWLC) from May
14-16, 2021, held virtually in Vancouver, BC. We are inviting graduate and
undergraduate students to submit abstracts for 30 minute talks (20 minute
presentation/10 minute discussion), or for presentation of a poster, in any
area of theoretical or applied linguistics.

The NWLC is an annual conference, hosted on an alternating basis by Simon
Fraser University, University of British Columbia, University of Victoria, and
University of Washington. The conference is an opportunity for students to
present their research, and make connections with their peers and other
researchers.

Note that the conference will be held virtually, with presentations and
question sessions conducted through Zoom.

Invited speakers:
 - Dr. Miikka Silfverberg, UBC
 - Dr. Neda Todorović, UBC
 - Samuel Akinbo, UBC


Call for Papers: 

This year we will have two special themed sessions:

(1) Linguistics and indigenous languages;
(2) Computational linguistics;

We encourage submissions related to one of the special sessions outlined
above, although abstracts in any area of linguistics are welcome.

Abstracts must be at most two pages long (including data and references), on a
letter-size sheet (8”1/2 by 11”) with 1″ margins, and typed in at least
12-point font. Abstracts not conforming to this format will not be accepted.
Submissions are limited to 1 individual and 1 joint abstract per author.
Abstract submissions are made through EasyChair (below).

Deadline for submissions is February 9, 2021 with replies to be sent by March
26, 2021.
