Language Science Lunch Talks
Food and ideas bring people together. Our weekly lunch talk series provides students and faculty with the opportunity to present their work to a supportive, interdisciplinary audience. The goal is to provide a space where language scientists from across campus can learn about each other’s work and the kinds of questions different disciplines raise, and find opportunities for future collaborations.
Talks take place at the Language Science Center in 2130 H.J. Patterson. Lunch is provided!
Please review our Community Guidelines to learn about productive ways to interact with students and faculty from different departments.
