Please join us at the Second Annual Linguistics Graduate Conference. The event is intended to serve as an informal and friendly venue for students (and faculty) to present completed or in-progress work in the format of an academic conference.
The theme of the conference is Linguistics, as well as Language documentation and revitalization and the schedule includes presentations from LING, ALDS, and Cognitive Science.
In addition to fostering community amongst presenters, the event is open to the wider Carleton community and we encourage students and faculty to attend to learn more about the kinds of graduate research currently underway in these inter-related fields.
Presentations will be in the form of talks (not posters).
Coffee will be provided.
