Rice Linguistics Society
Who we are
Rice Linguistics Society (RLS) is a student-run organization at Rice University that publishes the Rice Working Papers series and organizes a biennial workshop on linguistics. Additionally, RLS hosts a poster session during the Biennial Rice Symposium on Linguistics (next occuring in spring 2010). And of course, RLS is closely connected to the linguistics department at Rice University. Membership is open to all (undergraduates, graduate students, and faculty of any department), whether or not you are affiliated with the department.
