Sesquikudos!
Stanford linguists have been especially noteworthy lately. Congratulations to:
- Paul Kiparsky, who was awarded the 2012 Language Research Prize by the Swedish Academy
- Chris Manning, who was elected vice-president of the Association for Computational Linguistics
- Alum Ashwini Deo, who is co-PI on an NSF grant titled INSPIRE: The underpinnings of Semantic change: A Linguistic, Cognitive, and Information-Theoretic Investigation
- Herbert Clark, of Psychology and Professor-by-courtesy in Linguistics, who was awarded an honorary doctorate (Doctorat honoris causa) at the University of Neuchâtel on November 3, 2012. (In Germany, he now has the truly frightening title Professor Dr. Dr. h.c. Herbert H. Clark.)
