This term's only capstone seminar, Endangered Languages, will have its poster session on Tuesday, December 13, from 1:10 to 2:30, in room 401 Lorch. Please come see our 18 hard-working seniors' posters! The students in this class have done really excellent work all term, and their posters will surely also be excellent.

The topics are varied. The largest set is case studies -- on four Celtic languages (Scottish Gaelic, Breton, Welsh, and Cornish) plus Hawaiian, Neo-Chaldean Aramaic, Krymchak, Michif, Navajo, and Kaurna. There will also be posters on endangered village sign languages (in Ghana, Thailand, and elsewhere), attrition in dying languages, the impact of boarding schools on indigenous languages, and language ideologies & language endangerment.
