Join us for a 

multidisciplinary colloquium !



We will welcome Will Travers who is a Lecturer of Spanish at Emory University. He is currently completing his dissertation. Funded in part by a grant from the National Council of Less Commonly Taught Languages, his doctoral research centers around instructed third language (L3) acquisition and its facilitating factors, with a special focus on metalinguistic awareness.



Our own Jane Malicki and Anais Jandot will also present their research.

• Jane Malicki, "Relative Language Proximity as a Factor in Acquisition of L2/L3 Portuguese: The effect of L1 French or Spanish on acquisition of the Portuguese Present Perfect"
• Anaïs Jandot, "French and American Dreams: what and for whom are they? A look at what stand-up comedians have to say"
