LCTL Career Fair Keynote Address – Friday, July 25, 3:00 p.m. (CDT) on
Zoom
 KEYNOTE ADDRESS: “Humans Who Language: Restoring Humanity to Language
Education in Dehumanizing Times”
SPEAKER: Dr. L. J. Randolph Jr., Assistant Professor of World Language
Education; Affiliate Faculty in Second Language Acquisition,
University of Wisconsin-Madison
ABOUT: The Wisconsin Intensive Summer Language Institutes (WISLI)
helps connect speakers of less commonly taught languages with
professional development and career opportunities.
Less commonly taught but widely spoken. Many less commonly taught
languages (LCTLs) are critically important to international relations
and local communities. Yet, low enrollment levels jeopardize existing
programs, which significantly restricts opportunities for the vast
majority of language learners. WISLI is committed to increasing
awareness of the opportunities available to speakers of LCTLs.
Each summer, WISLI welcomes leaders and experts – from government to
the private sector and human services – to share stories, advice, and
opportunities for building multilingual-professional lives.

Linguistic Field(s): Applied Linguistics
