Congratulations to our Linguistics students who received awards this year from the Linguistic Society of America!
We had multiple undergraduates and one graduate student receiving awards this year – wow!
The following undergraduate Linguistics majors won a Committee on Ethnic Diverstiy in Linguistics (CEDL) Travel Grant:
- Michelle Drane
- Thomas Harb
- Tvisha Rao
The CEDL Travel grant provides up to $1000 to assist students from underrepresented groups to travel and attend the LSA meeting in January. This year, 3 of the 5 CEDL grants went to UW-Madison students – amazing!
As if that were not exciting enough, Linguistics PhD student Jae Weller also received a Committee on Gender Equity in Linguistics (COGEL) Grant as well! The COGEL grant provides $500 in travel funds to support participation in the LSA annual meeting by gender-diverse students.
We are so incredibly proud of all of our students for representing our campus so well at the national level!
