The 4th Annual Linguistics Conference at UGA was held on October 6-8, 2017. The central focus of this year's conference is “Crossing Boundaries”. We encourage creative interpretation of this focus, and welcome papers that address any of a myriad of what may be considered linguistic boundaries. We hope you'll join us at LCUGA4! ---------------------------------------------- LCUGA4 is made possible by the generous support of our sponsors: UGA Department of Linguistics, UGA Department of English, the Linguistic Atlas Project, UGA Institute of Bioinformatics, Graduate-Professional Student Association at UGA, UGA Institute for African American Studies, Latin American & Caribbean Studies Institute at UGA (LACSI), UGA Dept. of Germanic & Slavic Studies, & Dr. Joshua Bousquette (Faculty Research Funds)
