What are GLOWing lectures?

The goal of GLOWing lectures is to provide tools, insights, and puzzles
that will remind us and show new audiences why generative linguistics is
important, invigorating, and relevant. GLOWing lectures are intended to
be exciting, inspiring, educational, and accessible across generative
subfields. There are two broad categories of GLOWing lectures and the
choice is up to the speaker:

i. _What you should know about subfield X?_ These lectures teach
professionals from other generative subfields (semantics, phonology
etc.) what are some of the most exciting questions occupying researchers
in the speaker's subfield (and why) — perhaps also introducing some of
the important tools and methodologies of that subfield as well.

ii. _What is exciting in subfield X? _These lectures provide significant
discoveries and results from one subfield.

Our vision is that a GLOWing lecture of type (i) is not addressed to an
audience of mostly specialists of that subfield. Rather, it should be
accessible to an audience that is interested in learning about other
subfields. The lectures have the potential for establishing connections
across subfields, and lay the groundwork for possible further exchanges
within the broad bounds of the generative enterprise. Similarly, GLOWing
lectures of type (ii) are intended to be broadly accessible reflections
on what the subfield has achieved, what is missing, and directions that
have been taken.

To achieve our goals to inspire further engagement within the subfield
of the lecture and to create discussions across subfields, each lecture
will have a moderator/discussant from a _different_ subfield. The kind
of questions GLOWing lectures aim for are, for instance: What do
linguists find exciting about working in their subfield? What do they
consider major discoveries? What do they wish other people should know
about their subfield? What are some tools that are particularly useful
and important?

GLOWing lectures will have a 120 minute slot, with a lecture lasting
between 45–60 minutes, 30 minutes for discussions, and, should there
be time remaining and interest, a continued post-lecture gathering.
Partial attendance is, of course, encouraged as well.

We hope to see you there!

GLOWingly,

—Susi.
(for the GLOW board)
