We are ecstatic to announce that Viola Schmitt will be joining our faculty next academic year as Associate Professor of Linguistics with tenure! Most of Viola’s research focuses on semantics, but with deep connections to syntactic and philosophical issues as well. Viola comes to us from the Humboldt University, Berlin, and has also taught at the Universities of Graz and Vienna. She was a visiting professor in our department last year, and her influence on our department as a superb teacher and advisor from just that brief visit is already profound. We could not be more pleased or more proud that she will be joining us. Welcome Viola!
