Don and Betty Walker International Student Fund |
|
|
The Don and Betty Walker International Student Fund was established by the executive committee of the Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL) to honor the extensive and far-reaching contributions of Don and Betty Walker both inside and outside the field of computational linguistics. The fund helps defer travel costs for students to attend meetings in recognition of the priority that the Walkers have always placed on making the ACL accessible and welcoming to students and others who for geographical or financial reasons would otherwise not be able to participate as fully in ACL activities.
Eligibility
All full- or part-time
undergraduate and graduate students from anywhere in the world who are
submitting a paper for presentation to either the regular or student
session of the Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational
Linguistics and the Biennial Meeting of the European Chapter are
eligible to apply.
Grants
Selected
students will receive funds to cover all or part of their travel costs
to attend the ACL meeting. The meeting registration fee will be waived
as well.
Selection
Strong preference
will be given to those students whose papers are accepted for
presentation. Preference will also be given on the basis of
demonstrable need. Submission Please
complete all parts of this application and return the form with your
normal paper submission. (For instructions on how to submit a paper,
