BULA Upcoming Events
We are now organizing for next year. If you're interested
in being involved, send email to bula@louis-xiv.bu.edu.
Message received from MIT:
I'm writing to to tell you about the (new) linguistics club at MIT! You guys are always invited to any of our events, so if you'd like to be added to our mailing list to receive announcements, just email mitlings-request (at) mit.edu. Also, feel free to forward this to anyone I'm missing.Our website is http://web.mit.edu/mitlings/.
In particular, as a sort of follow-up to "The Linguistics" documentary that you may have seen, we're having a talk this Wednesday on fieldwork and endangered languages. There will be food (pizza and subs, probably)!
****************************************
"Lessons from Lardil: Tense Concord, Generation Harmony, and the Rainbow Serpent"Professor Norvin Richards will talk about his work on Lardil, an Aboriginal language of northern Australia. (As of 2000, it had two speakers remaining.) He'll try to hit on some topics relating to fieldwork and endangered languages that I suggested, but I think he's also hoping you come with lots of questions.
Wednesday, May 7 at 5pm in 32-144 (Stata Center).
Food will be provided.Sponsored by the MIT Linguistics Society (Mitlings-Munch Series) and the MIT Societo por Esperanto (Lecture Series on Language Diversity and Language Rights).
