Jim McCloskey’s Further Travels

Just as the summer ended, Jim McCloskey travelled first to the University of Tromsø in northern Norway to take part in a thesis defense on September 15th and a
Workshop on Agreement on September 16th, then on to Paris to take part in a Workshop on Impersonal Pronouns at CNRS Pouchet on September 20th and to give an invited talk at CSSP 2011, held at Université Paris 8 in St. Denis. In Tromsø, Jim had a chance to re-connect with alumnus Peter Svenonius, who is Professor and Senior Researcher at CASTL, and in Paris with alumnus Eric Potsdam of the University of Florida, who gave a paper at CSSP on the syntax of comparatives in Malagasy.
