UMass Linguistics will be participating in this year’s UMassGives donation drive, on April 29th and 30th. Moreover, this year, our special focus will be on gifts to support student research, particularly the research work of our undergraduate majors.

As stated there, our undergraduate major has over the past 10 years grown beyond what many could have ever imagined, drawing in exceptionally talented students from not only Massachusetts, but also from beyond the Commonwealth and even the US. Our majors form a critically important part of our intellectual community, and they’ve been increasingly successful in producing innovative research that is being accepted into major national and international conferences. We’re therefore very grateful for any assistance that donors can give to help us provide some funding support for student research – both grad and undergrad – and conference travel.

We’re also hoping that others can help spread the word of this to their own contacts and on social media. If you’d like to find out more, please contact Seth Cable.
