UChicago at the Amsterdam Colloquium
Congratulations to the following linguistics graduate students who have had papers accepted for presentation at this year’s Amsterdam Colloquium:
- Andrea Beltrama, “Totally tall sounds totally younger. From meaning composition to social perception”
- Tim Grinsell, “An argument for vagueness with holes”
- Patrick Munoz, “His name is ‘Socrates’ because that’s what he’s called: A model-theoretic account of name-bearing”
They will be joined by our friend from philosophy, Malte Willer, who will present his paper “Simplfying counterfactuals,” for a big Chicago presence at the AC. Congratulations to all!
