This past weekend, the Society of Linguistics Undergraduate Students (SLUGS) held the 10th
annual Toronto Undergraduate Linguistics Conference (TULCON). Students
from nine different universities around North America presented
original research talks on all aspects of linguistics. There were also
four posters presented during a Saturday afternoon poster session. The
conference featured two keynote talks: we opened with Professor Naomi
Nagy presenting
Cross-Cultural Sociolinguistic Surprises and closed with PhD student Alex Motut presenting
What naturalness ratings and eye-tracking can tell us about the syntax of non-obligatory control.
The organizing committee, headed by undergraduate students Katharine
Zisser and Cedric Ludlow, did a fantastic job – overall TULCON10 was a
great success!
