Call for Proposals
We welcome proposals for 20-minute presentations from colleagues teaching all languages at all ranks (including language program directors/coordinators/supervisors, tenure-track and non-tenure track faculty, instructors, and graduate students). Proposals may be either practice-oriented or research-oriented, as long as they have practical implications of relevance to language programs in post-secondary settings in the United States.
