Subject: LINGUIST Advisory Board

Dear LINGUIST Subscribers,

We would like to thank everyone who answered our call and volunteered to serve on the LINGUIST Advisory Panel. Many of you generously offered your time and expertise--so many that it took us this long to come to a decision. As you might imagine, it is difficult to choose when presented with so many excellent candidates. We wanted a board whose membership reflected diversity of both location and linguistic specialty, as well as familiarity with LINGUIST.

The following twenty-eight people will comprise the first LINGUIST Advisory Board:

Arendse Bernth, Chairman Hans Christian Boas Larry D. Chong Bethany Dumas Stan Dubinsky Paul D. Fallon Clare Gallaway Elly Van Gelderen Kurt Godden Pius Ten Hacken S J Hannahs Dick Hudson John Lawler Elizabeth D. Liddy Ahmad R. Lotfi Monica Macaulay Brian MacWhinney Joyce Milambiling Mullen John Paul Peranteau Joseph Salmons Farzad Sharifian Chilin Shih Richard Sproat Karl V. Teeter Andrew Winnard Margaret E. Winters Arnold Zwicky

We know that among these names are some that all of you recognize, as well as some relatively unfamiliar ones; it was our goal to have a cross-section of the linguistic community. We are confident you will agree that we have assembled some of the best in the field. We look forward to working with them in our efforts to better serve the linguistics community.

We thank you all--for your generosity, your patience, and your continued support of LINGUIST.

Best regards,

LINGUIST
