The committee of SALSA XXI especially invites papers that discuss typological, historical, computational, and sociolinguistic approaches to the theme "Language Variation and Change." The Symposium About Language and Society--Austin (SALSA) is an annual symposium promoting linguistic and sociolinguistic research at The University of Texas at Austin. Originally created through the joint efforts of students from the Linguistic and Anthropology Departments at The University of Texas, SALSA has developed into a truly interdisciplinary conference with contributions from various fields, including communication studies, foreign language education, educational psychology, media studies, speech communication, and numerous language departments. Our annual proceedings appear in special editions of Texas Linguistic Forum.
