History of LinguisticsNEW

For several years, UBC and 51ÉçÇøºÚÁÏhave been hosting a joint colloquium series called LinguisticsNOW, aimed at showcasing exciting new research in linguistics while fostering collaboration between UBC and SFU. In the past, we’ve organized one talk per term, open to both 51ÉçÇøºÚÁÏand UBC students, with each event hosted at either 51ÉçÇøºÚÁÏor UBC. While these talks have been inspiring, we recognized the need for a new format to better encourage collaboration between the two departments. In 2024, 51ÉçÇøºÚÁÏand UBC students proposed a joint research poster session, which led to the creation of a refreshed format for LinguisticsNOW called LinguisticsNEW. Email the LinguisticsNEW Organization Committee with any questions you may have.
