Colloquium Series

The Department of Linguistics holds a weekly talk series throughout the academic year. The regular time and place for colloquia is Thursdays at 4:00 p.m. in Herring Hall 125. Presentations are given by current doctoral students, Rice faculty, visiting scholars, and a number of distinguished visitors brought from outside the university. The schedule for upcoming colloquia is below.

The department has an e-mail list called lingcolloq-l which distributes colloquium announcements and associated talk abstracts. Graduate students are automatically subscribed to this list, and others interested can be added too. Don't worry--there is no spam sent on this list, and generally only one message per week. If you wish to be kept informed of Linguistics colloquia at Rice, and to receive a weekly e-mail message containing speaker, title, and abstract for each week's talk, you can subscribe to the distribution list at Lingcolloq-l.
