DESCRIPTION:This event combines a guest lecture and discussion about citize
 n sociolinguistics in the first hour\, with a workshop on practical techni
 ques for using translation to build a more multilingual campus\, neighborh
 ood\, and city.\n\nFrom 2:00 to 3:00\, Professor Betsy R. Rymes from the G
 raduate School of Education at the University of Pennsylvania will introdu
 ce and give a practical orientation to citizen sociolinguistics\, which is
  an approach to language that shows how everyday people can work together 
 to document and build knowledge about how people actually use language\, a
 nd thus challenge pre-existing stereotypes about what's considered 'standa
 rd' or 'correct'. Then\, from 3:00 to 4:00\, participants will apply what 
 they learned to a creative challenge: using translation as a lens into lan
 guage\, culture\, and society\, while developing outlines for projects tha
 t would enhance SJSU's identity as a multilingual place. \n\nThis event is
  part of the yearlong Translate San José project\, which is supported by 
 the College of Humanities & the Arts’ Artistic Excellence Programming Gr
 ant. Contact: David Malinowski\, Associate Professor\, Linguistics and Lan
 guage Development: david.malinowski@sjsu.edu. \n\nYou can read an intervie
