Call for Papers

Submissions

We are pleased to invite talk proposals for Arizona Linguistics Circle 14. The Arizona Linguistics Circle is an annual graduate student-run conference held at the University of Arizona. The theme of this year’s conference is Language Technology and Media, that is work that employs media technologies or research involving language in media. However, abstracts from all areas of linguistics are welcome and encouraged. Our goal is to foster a deeper appreciation for linguistics while providing a healthy environment for academic discussion, especially as it concerns graduate student research.

Abstracts are invited for 20-minute talks with 10-minute question periods to follow. Submissions are limited to one individual and one joint abstract per author. Abstracts should be a maximum of 500 words in length not including keywords, references, figures, and tableaux. Abstracts should include some discussion of data and indicate that the project is of reasonable depth. All abstracts should be anonymous: abstracts which contain author-identifying information will be rejected.

Abstract submission is via EasyChair.

For questions regarding abstract submission, please contact the abstract review manager at arizonalinguisticscircle14@gmail.com.

Acceptance

Upon acceptance, presenters will be asked to submit a version of your abstract with author-identifying information included. This will be shared on the conference website.

Presenters will have the opportunity to publish their Conference Proceedings in the Coyote Papers, LingCircle's publication series.
