The Ohio State University Linguistics Calendar

Spring 2011-2012

View other quarters speakers and abstracts.

The Department of Linguistics invites all interested students and faculty to attend these talks. Unless otherwise noted, the talks are sponsored by Linguistics Department as part of the Linguistics Speaker Series.

Dates for talks sponsored by other departments or groups are highlighted on the calendar in blue. Check back frequently for changes and updates. If you plan an event related to linguistics, please email speakers@ling.osu.edu with the relevant information so that we can add it to the calendar

Unfortunately, it is not always possible to avoid time conflicts, but we will make every attempt to avoid scheduling overlapping talks if the expected audiences are likely to overlap. To allow for such coordination, please help us stay informed about all linguistics-related events taking place at OSU with an email to speakers@ling.osu.edu!
