Linguistics in the Pub

Linguistics in the Pub (LIP) is an informal monthly gathering of language activists and linguists in Melbourne to discuss particular issues in Language and Linguistics, usually with guest speakers (often visiting international guests). As the name suggests, it usually happens in a pub or bar, and the beer and food help make for a stimulating atmosphere.

Stay tuned for upcoming events.

Those in other parts of Australia and the world are encouraged to organise a local gathering to discuss topics and support language activities in your area.

The current LIP organising committee LIP is: Ruth Singer (Melbourne Uni), Lauren Gawne (LaTrobe Uni), Jill Vaughan (Melbourne Uni), Chloé Diskin-Holdaway (Melbourne Uni), Jonathon Lum (Melbourne Uni) and Andrew Tanner (Living Languages)
