UBCWPL is published by the graduate students of the University of British Columbia. We feature current research on language and linguistics by students
and faculty of the department, and we are the regular publishers of two conference proceedings: the Workshop on Structure and Constituency
in Languages of the Americas (WSCLA) and the International Conference on Salish and Neighbouring Languages (ICSNL).
