The OSU Department of Linguistics will be holding a Summer Linguistics Institute for Youth Scholars (SLIYS, pronounced "slice") for high school students. This is a week-long summer event designed for students interested in the study of language. There will be two sessions held on OSU's main campus during July 2012.

SLIYS '12 is open to high school students from entering freshmen to seniors who are interested in foreign languages. An exciting program has been developed filled with activities aimed at helping participants become better students of language and linguistics.

The deadline for applications is May 31, and applications for SLIYS received before March 31 will be given priority.
