:)
These four are the ones coming up:

§  Boise State University (Boise, Idaho)—Mar. 3
Ngaytxoa—I should have mentioned this earlier, although I think a number of you already know about it. I'm leaving tomorrow for Boise, Idaho, where I'll be sharing the spotlight with none other than Marc Okrand, creator of Klingon! It won't be a lecture but rather a panel discussion titled "Linguists in Hollywood," presented by the Boise State Linguistics Association and the English Majors Association. I'm looking forward to getting to know Marc a bit and sharing experiences and war stories, both on mike and off. I'll let you know how things go.

§  University of Rochester Alumni Event (Los Angeles)—Mar. 12
This fundraising event for the University of Rochester, my undergraduate alma mater, will be held at Sony Studios in Culver City, a separate city that's an "island" inside Los Angeles (like Beverly Hills). It'll be pretty much the same presentation I gave on the UR campus back in October, when I attended my 45th college reunion. I mentioned to the organizers that anyone who heard me back in October and is also planning to attend this event will have a strong sense of déjà vu, but they didn't seem to think that would be a problem.

§  University of California (Los Angeles)—Apr. 9
I'll be the keynote speaker at the second annual Southern California Undergraduate Linguistics Conference at UCLA. As you may know, UCLA is a linguistics powerhouse, so I'm expecting a lot of challenging questions.

§  California State University (Fullerton, California)—Apr. 18
I'll be the keynote speaker at the 20th CSUF linguistics symposium. (I couldn't find an announcement on the Internet—maybe I googled the wrong search terms.) This will be a return to the university where I taught linguistics way back in 1978-79, when I was working on my Ph.D. dissertation. I haven't been back since, and I suspect things have changed a bit in the interim.

No, it's just Paul Frommer travelling around to several universities to tell them and teach them a little bit about Na'vi and his experience on the set of Avatar.

Seze Mune

Is there a listing of the Fall talks?

Ftiafpi

Not that I'm aware of. I do believe he has a break from talks for a while and is using the time to concentrate on Na'vi. That's just my guess, though.
