Join us for a talk by Dr. Zed Sehyr, Assistant Professor at Chapman University, on Monday, April 13th from 5:30–6:30pm in Capitol Federal Hall, Room 1020, on the University of Kansas Lawrence campus.

This talk explores how signed languages deepen our understanding of human language. Drawing on research from ASL-LEX.org, Dr. Sehyr will examine the structure of the American Sign Language (ASL) lexicon and what it reveals about universal properties of language.
