Call For Student Volunteers

We seek a limited number of student volunteers for the 2016 Conference of the North American Chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics - Human Language Technology.

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

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

Volunteers are assigned one full day’s work. 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.

Application deadline: March 30, 2016

Notification of acceptance: April 20, 2016
