at the University of Pennsylvania campus in Philadelphia. 

Invited Speaker: Juliette Blevins of the University of California, Berkeley on

Papers on any topic in linguistics and associated fields are welcome. Speakers

acceptance/rejection will be given by Wednesday, January 21, 2004. 

Length: Please limit abstracts to one page, single- or double-spaced. An
additional page may be used for references and tables. Do not include your name
or affiliation within the abstract.

Format: To facilitate the review process, please submit your abstract as a .pdf
file. If you cannot create .pdf files, you may submit a .doc, .rtf, or .txt
file, and we will convert it for you. However, since phonetic fonts are not
likely to output correctly, we ask that you set up a legend using standard
ASCII characters. 

Submission: An online abstract submission form will be available at the PLC
website, http://www.ling.upenn.edu/Events/PLC/ 

Proceedings: Conference proceedings will be published as a volume of the Penn
