Home | UConn Meaning Group

The UConn Meaning Group meets on a regular (mostly weekly) basis throughout the academic year to discuss recent and ongoing work in the areas of Semantics, Pragmatics, and Philosophy of Language. It consists primarily of faculty and graduate students in the Departments of Linguistics and Philosophy, but is open to anyone interested in the topics. Anyone who would like to be on the mailing list is invited to get in touch.

In Fall 2023, regular meetings will be held on Tuesdays 11:30am-12:30pm in Oak Hall 338.
