In order to extend participation in COSWL and to share
the workload on large projects, we welcome volunteers to join an existing
task force or propose a new project or task force. If you are interested,
please contact the task force members listed below, or one of the other
committee members.
WILMA
The Women in Linguistics Mentoring Alliance (WILMA) is now open as an
internet service at http://ling.wisc.edu/wilma.
Individual and group mentoring opportunities are available. Since this is a
brand-new site, we need as many people as possible to sign up!
Syllabus Collection
If you have a course syllabus to contribute to the Language and Gender
Syllabus Collection, or if you would be willing to help solicit contributions
from others, please contact Robin Queen.
Institutional Surveys
COSWL has an ongoing survey project, designed to monitor the status of
women in linguistics, and identify potential obstacles to advancement. If you
have ideas for specific types of data you'd like to see collected, or if you
would be willing to help with the administration of the survey, please contact
Susan Guion.
Becoming a COSWL Member
While committee members are appointed by the LSA executive committee,
we are always looking for people who are interested in serving. Contact the
current chair(s) for more information (see "members" page for addresses).
