The 25th annual Conference of the Student Organization of Linguistics in Europe (ConSOLE) was held just last week at the University of Leipzig (http://conference.uni-leipzig.de/console25/). Its incredible program featured work by several UMass students, visitors, and faculty.

The talks included work by second year students Michael Wilson (“Causing Resultative Passives”) and Rong Yin (“The De Re Reading and Universal Quantification Phrase in Mandarin”), as well as an invited talk by Seth Cable (“Negation and Antonymy in Tlingit”). In addition, visiting student Marlijn Meijer presented a poster on her work concerning propositional anaphora (“Believing It vs. Believing So”).

Overall, the list of talks and posters was phenomenal, thanks largely to the incredibly hard work of the student organizers at Leipzig, which included former UMass visitors Andy Murphy and Joanna Zaleska. Anyone interested in a handout from any of the talks should get in touch with Seth Cable.
