SLOGGETT AWARDED BAGGETT FELLOWSHIP

Linguistics major Shayne Sloggett has been awarded one of two prestigious Baggett Fellowships offered by the Linguistics Department at the University of Maryland, College Park. Baggett Fellowships are full-time post-baccalaureate research positions that offer students the opportunity to benefit from, and contribute to, research programs in UMD’s Linguistics Department and the Cognitive Neuroscience of Language Laboratory. Shayne, who has been working with Matt Wagers in the Syntax/Language Processing Lab, reports,  I was drawn to the program because I am graduating a bit early and wanted more experience before applying to graduate programs.
