    Colloquium (MCLC) will take place the weekend of June 25-26.
    This meeting marks the first of what will become an annual conference
    devoted to issues in Cognitive Science and Computational Linguistics. Topics
    under discussion include grammar learnability and induction, integration of
    stochastic and symbolic models of grammar, architectural issues in grammar,
    and formal and computational models across various areas of Linguistics,
    including syntax, phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics and pragmatics.
