*I do not have direct evidence that Bob organized the SCLC portion of this joint meeting, but the fact that it was at KU this year suggests that he had a hand in it. If anyone knows who actually organized the SCLC this year, please let me know.

**This program reflects what was posted by Ardis Eschenberg (https://web.archive.org/web/20030919061347/http://wings.buffalo.edu/linguistics/ssila/SACCweb/SACC11.htm). She listed the program in alphabetical order by first author’s last name, so it is unclear which day each talk took place. The dates are inferred by looking at CVs of individuals who presented at this conference. Furthermore, it is unclear if this program represents the official program and excludes any changes to the itinerary or if it represents those papers that were read at the conference. The fact that only three presentations are listed suggests that some Siouanists or Caddoanists may have presented at MALC instead of SCLC, but there is no known program from the 1991 meeting of MALC. Any attendees who have insight into this program are invited to reach out to clarify the program above.
