Registration for the annual LSA meeting has just opened! The meeting will be held in Philadelphia, from January 9 - 12, 2025

Some features:

  • A highly entertaining 5-minute linguist session featuring public-facing talks on a) mismatches between musical and linguistic accents in Spanish songs, b) whether we're biased against AI-generated haiku (?!), c) gender bias in news sources and several other fun things!
 
  • A special session on Language, Conflict and Peacemaking including listening circles and a panel discussion.
 
  • The annual meetings of several sister societies. 
Early bird registration prices are available until Nov 15 for regular members ($495), until Dec 11th for students ($179).
