MIKKELSEN TO FULL

It was announced late in the summer that alumna Line Mikkelsen had been promoted to the rank of Professor in the Department of Linguistics at UC Berkeley. Line earned the Ph.D. at Santa Cruz in 2004 (her committee: Donka Farkas, Bill Ladusaw and Jim McCloskey) and began her career at Berkeley in the Fall semester following her graduation. She has worked on the linguistics of the Scandinavian languages and also on the indigenous languages of California and she is particularly well-known for her work on copula constructions. A paper with co-author Jorge Hankamer (`CP Complements to D) appeared in the most recent issue of Linguistic Inquiry (52.3 2021).
