Crossroads of Language, Interaction, and Culture

The Center for Language, Interaction, and Culture Graduate Student Association (CLIC GSA) at UCLA is a student organization that promotes interdisciplinary work on the intersections of language, culture, and conversational activities.

This year’s members include graduate students from Anthropology, Applied Linguistics, East Asian Languages & Cultures, Education, and Sociology.

Every other year we host a conference in conjunction with the UC Santa Barbara Language, Interaction, and Social Organization (LISO) graduate student group (who hosts the conference on the alternate years).

We have also been known to run a speaker series and CLICshop gatherings, during which graduate students are able to discuss their research and receive feedback from both colleagues and faculty members.

The CLIC Journal was developed as an outlet for the proceedings of the annual CLIC-LISO GSA Conferences, which were previously published in the journal Issues in Applied Linguistics (IAL). Crossroads is now available as a free Open Access journal on eScholarship and for purchase in print through UC Press.
