Student Volunteers

We seek a limited number of student volunteers for the ACL 2016 Conference.

In return for one full day equivalent of work, students receive free registration to the main conference. Workshops and tutorials are not included, and must be paid for by the student.

The work will be divided, probably into two half-day shifts, and the shifts will be scheduled to maximize volunteer access to the conference events. Tasks include assisting at the registration desk, stuffing delegate packs, and providing technical assistance for conference events including tutorials, the main conference, and workshops.

Preference will be given to students who have papers accepted at the main conference or workshops.

Application deadline: June 9

Notification of acceptance: June 23

Submission Procedure

Students should make travel arrangements, accommodation and registration independent of the results of their application for the Student Volunteer Program.

All Student Volunteer Award recipients must register for the conference, selecting “I am a Student Volunteer” in the main conference section. Students who pay the main conference registration and are selected as volunteers will be reimbursed by the office manager, Priscilla Rasmussen, after the conference.
