Eric Snyder writes: "The fourth annual Philosophy / Linguistics workshop was titled "No Ifs Ands Or Buts" (we can thank Craige Roberts for such a clever title!). As it suggests, this year's workshop focused on philosophical and linguistic issues dealing with logical terminology, e.g. 'no', 'if', 'and', etc. There was a great deal of variety in the talks this year, but as with workshops in previous years, bringing together philosophers and linguists to talk about a common topic generated lots of interesting discussion from interestingly different perspectives. There were eight speakers in total, five from OSU. The latter included Teresa Kouri and Neil Tennant from Philosophy, Chris Worth, Carl Pollard, and Bob Levine from Linguistics. Outside speakers included Gila Sher (Philosophy, UCSD), Tim McCarthy (Philosophy, Illinois), and Scott Anderbois (Linguistics, Brown). Topics ranged from logical pluralism, truth-maker semantics, and cardinality quantifiers on the Philosophy side, modality, negation, and different approaches to coordinating conjunctions on the Linguistics side. We would like to thank the Philosophy and Linguistic departments, the Logic or Language Society, and the TIE grant committee for funding help. We hope attendees enjoyed the workshop, and we are already looking forward to next year's workshop!"
