MSULC

The Michigan State Undergraduate Linguistics Conference (MSULC) is an annual undergraduate research conference for students doing language-related research at Michigan State University.

MSULC was started in 2010 and is in its 10th consecutive year. In 2012, MSULC started the tradition of hosting a keynote speaker who is a former MSU undergraduate student and current PhD student studying linguistics.
