Dr. Susan M. Burt, Associate Professor
I would like to invite Honors Program undergraduates, particularly English majors with an interest in Linguistics, to join in the research project entitled “Gender, Status and Address: What are the Conventions?”
In this project, a team of researchers, faculty, graduate students and undergraduates, will use focus group interviews, class observation and questionnaires to research student and faculty preferences in face-to-face address: what do we want people to call us, and what do we prefer to call them?
Undergraduate researchers will help in gathering data, in recording and transcribing interviews, and will organize, write and present their own research presentation for the Research Symposium in April.
