On Friday, December 5, Maksymilian Dąbkowski presented his dissertation (filed in October) on "Metrical stress and glottal stops in A'ingae," which shows based on data collected during fieldwork in A'ingae-speaking communities in Ecuador that phonology must by cyclic and morpheme-sensitive, and that phonological domains correspond to morphosyntactic domains. In January, Maks is starting a position as a Research Assistant Professor at The University of Hong Kong. Congrats, Maks! Maks is pictured below in front of his presentation slides with committee members Darya Kavitskaya, Peter Kasuga-Jenks, and Hannah Sande. Not pictured: Committee member Lev Michael.
