PADGETT AT WCCFL

Jaye Padgett spent the weekend in LA, where he was an invited speaker at WCCFL 32. Jaye’s talk was titled Word-edge effects as overphonologization of phrase-edge effects, and those interested can find the abstract here. Also at the conference were alums Rachel Walker (PhD 1998), who is now Professor of Linguisics at USC, and Sara Finley (B.A. 2003), who is now Assistant Professor of Psychology at Waldorf College. Being at WCCFL also gave Jaye the chance to reunite with his NYI-St. Petersburg summer institute pals Rajesh Bhatt, Sabine Iatridou (also an invited speaker), and Roumi Pancheva.
