The Collitz Chair was held by Edward Stankiewicz; the Linguistic
Society of America Professor was M. A. K. Halliday.
There were also twelve local faculty members: Foster W. Blaisdell,
Vladimir Honsa, Fred W. Householder, Jr., Andreas Koutsoudas, John R.
Krueger, Felix J. Oinas, Alo Raun, Thomas A. Sebeok, Denis Sinor, Albert
Valdman, Harry V. Velten, and C. F. Voegelin.
Thirteen supporting faculty members associated with several seminars
in the Linguistic Institute were: Robert Browning, Hamilton College;
Miguel Enguidanos, Indiana University; Chester Hunt, Western Michigan
University; Nathan Keyfitz, University of Chicago; Heinz Kloss,
Forschun1 sstelle fir Nationalitaten und Sprachfrasen; Monique Leon,
Ohio Wesleyan University; Pierre Leon, The Ohio State University,
Stanley Lieberson, University of Wisconsin; Archibald T. MacAllister,
Princeton University; Klaus A. Mueller, Associated Colleges of the Middle
West: Guillermo del Olmo, Yale University; Leonard D. Savitz, Temple
University; and Fernand Vial, Fordham University.
The Linguistic Institute Seminar on Sociolinguistics included, in
addition to its full-time participants, four consultants: Susan M.
Ervin, University of California (Berkeley); Joseph 1i. Greenberg, Stanford
University; Vallace E. Lambert, McGill University; and John Useem,
3
Michigan State University. Also, three predoctoral students attended
the Seminar: Ranier Lang, University of California (Los Angeles);
Leonard Lieberran,, .ichigan State University; and 1William A. Stewart,
Center for Applied Linguistics.
The sixty-five full-time faculty members offered a total of seventy-
five courses. The Institute provided course work in all the traditional
fields of linguistics (such as anthropological, areal, descriptive,
comparative, historical, general and applied; phonology, grammar,
lexicology, dialectology); in the major theoretical approaches to linguistic
analysis (includin& the Prague school, tagmemics, transformational analysis,
"prosodics," and others); and in the chief "hyphenated" fields of linguistics
and related disciplines (e.g., language and culture, language and literature,
language and society, language and biology, language and writing, psychology
of language). At the same time, an exceptionally broad coverage of
languages -and groups of languages was represented, including: African,
Albanian, Altaic, Arabic, Balkan, Burmese, Celtic, Chinese, English,
Estonian, French, German, Gothic, Greek, Haitian Creole, (Literary)
Hebrew, Hindi-Urdu, Hungarian, Indo-European, Indonesian, Japanese, Korean,
1Mayan, Mongolian, (Classical) Nahuatl, Oceanic, Old Church Slavonic, Old
Icelandic, Quechua, Russian, Scandinavian, Semitic, Slavic, Spanish, Tai,
Tamil, Turkish, Uralic, and (Classical) Yucatec.
The Seminar for College Teachers, held under the auspices of the
Indiana Language Program, was attended by 32 postdoctoral Fellows directly
involved in the administration and supervision of instruction in French,
German, or Spanish at the college or university level. The program consisted
of classes and lectures in four major areas: pschology of language
learning; applied linguistics; language methods and materials; and the
teaching of literature. The Seminar represents the first attempt to
acquaint language teachers at the college and university level with new
developments in the field and to give them the opportunity to exchange
ideas and to formulate policies with regard to such matters as desired
terminal objectives, the relationship between service language teaching
and graduate programs, and the relative status and role of language teaching
at the university level.
The Seminar on Sociolinbuistics was sponsored by the Social Science
Research Council. The thirteen full-time faculty level participants in
the Seminar were about evenly divided between linguists and social
scientists, especially sociologists. The discussions in the Seminar were
based chiefly on papers written by the participants but also on pre-
sentations by consultants and Guests. In addition to the regular sessions
of the Seminar three working groups met and prepared papers on social
theory and linguistics, on types of multilingual societies, and on the
process of language standardization.
Five special awards were granted by the Office of Education's
National Defense Education Act Title VI Fellowship Program to the
following postdoctoral participants in an intensive course of Russian
especially designed for linguists: Kenneth L. Hale, University of
Illinois; Herbert J. Landar, Los A.ngeles State College; Paul M. Lloyd,
University of Pennsylvania; Leo Wayne Tosh, University of Texas; and
Juanita V. Williamson, Le Moyne College.
The followin6 were participants in the Linguistic Institute Research
Seminar in Language Data Processing: Ranan B. Banerji, Case Institute
of Technology; William C. Crossbrove, Brown University; S. N. Jacobson,
Radio Corporation of America; Mary Lu Joynes, University of Texas; Dan M.
Matson, University of Wisconsin; Fred C. C. Pen, Columbia University;
Paul 0. Samuelsdorff, Seminar flir Verbl. Sprachwissenschaft; Albert Schuts,
University of Hawaii; Rober W. Skiuy, Wheaton College; Bernard Spolsky,
McGill University; David L. Stampe, University of Chicago; Volney
Stefflre, Yale UniversityJ James W. Stone, Center for Applied Linguistics;
James P. Thorne, University of Edinburgh; Richard L. Venezky, Stanford
University; and Oswald Werner, Northwestern University.
There were also nine Fellows sponsored by the Inter-American
Program in Linguistics and Language Teaching, including two postdoctoral
participants: Christiaan H. Eersel, Linguistics Bureau (Surinam);
and John Joseph Maria Figueroa, University of the West Indies (Jamaica).
The 196h Institute offered a rich program of afternoon and evening
lectures. One special feature of the Institute was the Trends in
Linguistics Lecture Series in which seven visiting linguists spent one
week at the Institute; moet gave four lectures, and all were available for
consultation with students and staff. In addition, the Linguistic
Institute Research Seminar in Language Data Processing sponsored a
series of ten lectures; Albert H. Marckwardt delivered a series of seven
lectures under the over-all title, "Linguistics and the Teaching of
English;" and the Seminar for College Teachers of French, German, and
Spanish (co-directed by Archibald T. IacAllister and Albert Valdman)
included a set of lectures in its program. The complete list of
