What is the Linguistics Club?

Linguistics Club is a student-run club open to anyone who is interested in linguistic topics! We talk about a different linguistic topic every week, play related games, and are currently in the process of making our own CU-themed Conlang. The club is a great way to meet people, and to talk about linguistics even without any experience in the field. Meetings are weekly on Mondays at 6:00-7:30pm in the Lucile Berkeley Buchanan building, room 143. Everyone is also invited to join our discord server , even if they can't make it to meetings! We hope to see you there!

The Ling Club officers for the 2023-2024 year are El Hayes (CU Conlang Officer), Solán Wheeler (President), Jake Burton (Vice-President), Riley Carroll (Treasurer), Olivia Bahr (Discord Officer), and Tessa Moskoff (Communications Officer).
