*This program reflects what was posted by Ardis Eschenberg (https://web.archive.org/web/20030623074133/http://wings.buffalo.edu/linguistics/ssila/SACCweb/SACC16.htm). She listed the program in alphabetical order by first author’s last name, so it is unclear which day each talk took place. There is no mention of the organizer(s), so I have assumed it to be Randy, given his involvement in the SCLC over the years and its physical location. 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. Any attendees who have insight into this program are invited to reach out to clarify the program above.
