Meeting Description:

The Sociolinguistics Symposium (SoSy) 2023 is a graduate student-run symposium
aimed primarily at providing graduate and advanced undergraduate students a
forum to present and discuss their research on topics related to
sociolinguistics. Following the success of last year’s symposium, this year’s
theme is “Diversity, Difference, and Dialects”. Our theme is aimed at
investigating and understanding the concepts of diversity, difference, and
dialects in various contexts. This includes, for example, examining the
distinction between diversity and distinction – as in the postcolonial
writings of Bhabha – and where language sits within it. This session invites
abstracts that focus more broadly on various semiotic practices as well
—including but not limited to codeswitching, stance-taking, lexical choice,
script choice, and phonetic variation—of meaning-making in different
modalities. We especially encourage research that explores the identity
processes uncovered, recovered, encouraged, or discouraged at the loci of
linguistic marginalization through a variety of analytical/theoretical
sociolinguistic approaches.
