Cornell Underlings

The Cornell UnderLings (Cornell Undergraduates in Linguistics) is the undergraduate student group of the Cornell Department of Linguistics. It serves to seek unity in the body of linguistics majors and promote linguistics at the undergraduate level in the Cornell community and the broader academic community. We have weekly meetings in which members plan events and activities, discuss linguistics and share related information, and simply have fun talking about classes and professors. Some of the events we have had include:

• Brunches with linguistics faculty members at Cornell dining halls
• Informal dinners with club members
• Seminars with Career Services about what to do with a Linguistics degree
• Language/linguistics-related games and activities
• Movie nights showing linguistics/language-related movies ("The Linguists", "Arrival")
• Annual Cornell Undergraduate Linguistics Colloquia (CULC) - which provide an opportunity for undergraduate linguistics students from all over the world to present their research on linguistics

Registrations are open for the 14th Annual Cornell Undergraduate Linguistics Colloquium
Friday, May 1 to Sunday, May 3, 2020 - Please visit the conference page: CULC 14

The Cornell UnderLings invites anyone who is interested in languages, language patterns, language usage, language change, or anything language-related to join us in Morrill Hall. You don't have to be a linguistics major or minor to be a part of the UnderLings!
