McGill linguists had a number of successful PhD defenses this summer. These included:

  • Alex Zhai, 7/28 – “Are Some Listeners More Lexical Than Others?”
  • Jonathan Palucci, 8/3 –– “Types of pseudo-scope: variation and non-local QR”
  • Katya Morgunova, 8/4 –– “Clausal transparency in Kanien’kéha: typological implications”
  • Simon LiVolsi, 8/15 –– “Stress, epenthesis, and syllables in Kanien’kéha”

Congratulations new doctors!
