We have had a lovely year so far and only expect things to get better this year in Linguistics Club! Welcome again to all our new and returning members! In case you missed it, here are some of the meetings we've had already:
-Our Mass Meeting, in which we introduced ourselves and the club, and played a rousing game of MooT! Both teams (the Afro-Asiatic team and the Dravidian team) tied. There was also free pizza and cookies, courtesy of the department and Sarah Harper, respectively.
-Our second meeting, where we watched Project Nim and had free popcorn. We also had coloring books with famous linguists. You can download the coloring book here.
-For our third meeting, we repeated an old classic, "Language and Humor Night." We watched comedians talk about language. Links will be posted later for you to see them again and show them to your friends! There was also free cake, courtesy of Cassie Kelly. (Noticing a theme?)
Keep an eye on this blog for all upcoming events! We have a "big" event (normally a guest lecture or a movie) with free pizza on the first of every month. Upcoming events include: a movie this Monday (TBA), an exec board presentation on Artificial Languages, a TV Dialects night, a collaboration with the Society of Physics Students on the Physics of Speech and Sound, and a guest appearance from Sam Epstein, plus possibly a "field trip" to the LSA Meeting in January. Stay tuned!
