### Festschrift published in honor of Huang 

The Department is proud to announce that *Chinese Syntax in a Cross-Linguistic Perspective,* edited by Audrey Li, Andrew Simpson, and Wei-Tien Dylan Tsai, has been published in honor of Professor **C.-T. James Huang**. The collection is described as a "tribute to Professor Huang's lifelong work on the syntax of Chinese and his attempts to demonstrate how the comparative analysis of Chinese reveals important properties of Universal Grammar."

Congratulations, Jim!
