IHR AWARDS

WHASC is slowly catching up with news and announcements made during the summer. Last July, for example, IHR announced its research awards and fellowships for the 2013-2014 Academic Year. Among the awardees were Clara Sherley-Appel, who won a research fellowship for her project Differential Object Marking in Turkish, and Amy Rose Deal who won a Faculty Research Fellowship for a research project on Types of Ergative Case (announced in WHASC on January 15th last). Also funded was the Santa Cruz Ellipsis Consortium a research group convened by Pranav Anand and Jim McCloskey which brings together faculty, graduate students and undergraduate students around the goal of creating a richly annotated corpus of naturally occurring data concerning ellipsis.
