With this issue, Whamit announces its usual summer hiatus.  We will resume weekly publication in the Fall — but, as always, we will be here all summer with any breaking news from MIT Linguistics that may reach us.  Have a great summer!

The student editors:
Bingzi Yu and Alma Frischoff

The faculty editor:

(who thanks Bingzi and Alma for their great work on Whamit throughout the year — and our department as a whole, for giving us such great stuff to write about)

On May 28, MIT held its Commencement ceremonies. We could not be more proud of our students who received their diplomas at this year’s ceremonies!

Congratulations to our undergraduate majors Miguel Buitrago, Ellie Bultena, and Olivia Honeycutt, who were awarded the degree of Bachelor of Science (S.B.) in Linguistics!

Congratulations to Ukhengching Marma, William Pacheco, and Ogloo Jurkhaichin, who were awarded the degree of Master of Science (S.M.) in Linguistics for their work in the MIT Indigenous Languages Initiative program!

And congratulations to Omri Doron, Adele Mortier, Giovanni Roversi, and Yash Sinha, who were awarded the degree of PhD in Linguistics!

A remarkable group even by the standards of our remarkable field. We rejoice in your achievements at MIT and cannot wait to see what you all do next!!
