About the Corpus Linguistics Summer Institute

[xujiajin]

I feel quite imperative and sorry to tell all the Corpus4U users, especially the 76 who participated in the survey, about our plan of running a Corpus Linguistics Summer Institute.

Given that we cannot secure the funding for the Institute, though however hard we tried, we have to give up the plan.

Hopefully we will have the opportunities to do this in the future.

Best,
Corpus4U

thanks for your effort.
the website is a seminar, isn't it?

 

[xujiajin]

Thank you for your understanding.
Without funding we can hardly do anything.

Let's hope that we can do it in the near future!

Don't get discouraged. We wait for a longer time, and more people will come, in which case it is more likely to find a sponsor.

Anyone who happens to know some angel sponsor/donator are welcome to help us out.

why can't we have a small scale of corpus saloon or seminar whatever the name might be in the next summer? we may meet and have face to face talk about corpus linguistics. anyone that would like to be there foots their bills by themselves. how do you think about that?

 

[xujiajin]

Let us see whether there are more who have the same idea?

Drop a note here if you are interested please.

Mr. Han's suggestion sounds pretty good! It's something like a powwow.
