Event description: 
Linguistics is interesting, fun, a great way to hone our analytical skills, and a field that opens many doors to the future —  in education (as an educator or as a policy maker), in basic research, in the computational linguistics industry, in neuroscience, etc. One of those doors interfaces with the law.  What does that mean? 
 
To find out, you’re cordially invited to an informal conversation with two people who will discuss the relevance of training in linguistics for the practice of law: 
 
David Mayo (J.D. Harvard Law School, 1987) and Tamar Holoshitz (AB in Linguistics, Harvard, 2010; J.D Yale Law School, 2015), Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP
 
Lunch will follow for those who are interested.
