SCLP
The Santa Cruz Linguistics and Philosophy Group
SCLP is an interdisciplinary reading group at UC Santa Cruz consisting of
faculty and graduate students from philosophy and linguistics.
The focus of the group is in the areas of formal semantics, the
philosophy of language, and philosophical logic.
SCLP began life
as the Santa Cruz Language and Linguistics Group (SCLL). Since 2004 it
has hosted a Distinguished Visitor Series which has been generously
supported by UCSC's Institute for Humanities Research, the Linguistics
Department, and the Philosophy Department. For a list of our past
Distinguished Visitors and further information, explore the links at
