Research Highlights
Suzanne Evans Wagner
Suzanne Evans Wagner is an assistant professor in the Linguistics program. Her research addresses the social and linguistic factors that cause language changes to occur over time. To understand all these factors, large amounts of natural language data in both written and spoken form are needed. Her students are involved in the collection, processing and analysis of this data in the MSU Sociolinguistics Laboratory. Through this work, undergraduate and graduate students have opportunities to learn research skills using real texts and recordings.
