Important Information
Language Fest details: LangFest will start with a spoken session in Konover Auditorium, then poster session(s) will begin in W.A. Bousfield Psychology Building. Sandwiches and beverages will be provided at the poster session.
Poster session details: For Language Fest 2026, there will be a single poster session that goes from 5:15-6:45pm. Please plan on being at your posters at 5:15 and until 6:30pm. You will find your poster number in the program that will be emailed to you.
Poster Set Up & Take Down: Each poster will have an assigned number (poster numbers will be marked on the boards). We ask all presenters to put up your poster before the start of the poster session (ideally before Language Fest). Members of the organizing committee will be available to help you find your poster location and put up your poster beginning at 2:00pm. If you would like to put up your poster earlier in the day, please feel free to reach out (langfest@uconn.edu) so we can assist.
We also ask that you not take your poster down until the end of the poster session (6:30pm). If you must leave before the end of the event, the Language Fest committee can take down and hold onto your poster to be picked up at a later day/time. Please email us (langfest@uconn.edu) if you would like us to keep your poster. Please note that posters not claimed by April 17th will be recycled.
Poster Preparations: Poster boards will be 70-in (width) by 50-in (height) in dimension. Based on previous events with these poster boards, we find that 48-inch (w) x 36-inch (h) fit well within these boards.
