Paula Menyuk Travel Award 2009

The Paula Menyuk Travel Award was established in honor of Paula Menyuk, Professor Emerita at Boston University's School of Education and one of the founders of BUCLD, to assist student presenters at the Boston University Conference on Language Development by offsetting some of their travel expenses. The awards are funded by grants from the National Science Foundation and the National Institutes of Health, as well as by private donations.

The selection criteria for recipients includes the following: abstract score, status as a single or first author, distance travelled to attend the conference, and being in the pre-doctoral stages of study.
