I am very pleased to announce that we have hired Aaron Dinkin to a two year Assistant Professor, replacing Sali while she holds her Killam Fellowship.
Aaron completed his PhD at the University of Pennsylvania, working on dialect boundaries and phonological change in upstate New York. He is interested in the interaction of phonological structure with the direction of phonetic and phonological change. He will teach courses in sociolinguistics and historical linguistics, as well as other courses. You can find some additional information at http://www.ling.upenn.edu/~dinkin/
Aaron's position officially begins July 1, and we look forward to seeing him here sometime soon after that date.
We look forward to welcoming Aaron to the department.
