The Buckeye East Asian Linguistics Forum 6 (BEAL Forum 6), hosted at OSU, will be held via Zoom on 18 October 2024. First held a decade ago in Autumn 2014, this biennial, one-day event -- which includes invited keynote speakers -- provides a platform mainly for graduate students to articulate and exchange ideas on their research findings with forum participants and attendees. Originally an on-site event with poster sessions, the forum series has since the COVID-19 pandemic been moved online, with parallel sessions consisting of oral, 15-minute presentations via Zoom.
The BEAL Forum is an excellent opportunity to share one’s research in a public arena and to receive comments from commentators who were invited to provide individual feedback afterwards to presenters in their assigned panel.
While this Forum series was established to showcase regional research activities in East Asian linguistics, over the years it has attracted not only presenters in and beyond the midwest, but also international presenters, including from Canada, Europe, East Asia and Southeast Asia.
The Forum is free and open to the public, but be sure to register online to obtain the Zoom link.
