:: ACL'04 Student Volunteer Programme

ACL'04 is looking for student volunteers to work at the conference in exchange for free main conference registration. The Student Volunteer Programme is open to full-time students only. Student assistants will give the equivalent of one full conference day of work over the period of the conference. Work will encompass such things as assisting at the registration desk, stuffing delegat packs, manning the roving microphones during the question periods, etc. Wishes about attendance to specific conference events will be taken into account, when possible. Volunteers are needed from July 20th through July 26th.

In your email application (there is no form), please include the dates you expect to be in Barcelona, whether you are presenting a paper or poster, what year of your program you are in, and whether you are able to obtain any travel support from other sources. Eligible volunteers will be assigned on a first-come-first-served basis, with up to one half being from Spain, if possible.

If you are willing to serve as student assistant, please email this application to lalonso@lingua.fil.ub.es by Wedenesday, 30 June 2004.
