LINGUISTICS GRADS SHINE AT GRADUATE RESEARCH SYMPOSIUM

The 9th annual Graduate Research Symposium took place last Friday, in its new venue within McHenry Library. Four Linguistics graduate students – Tommy Denby, Peter Fabian, Mark Norris, and Matt Ong – gave posters, and Allan Schwade gave a talk. All of them did a fantastic job. Special congratulations to Allan, who won the Alumni Association Award within Humanities (one of the two awards for Humanities participants) for his presentation, “The Role of Gender in Word Recognition”, and to Mark, who won the Graduate Dean’s Award (one of two awards for all of the participants!) for his poster “Case Concord At The Syntax-Phonology Interface”!
