Dear ACL Members,
We would like to remind ACL members of the ACL Fellows program and to encourage them to
nominate appropriate colleagues for possible selection as Fellows. Fellows are expected to have
made substantial, sustained contributions to the field of computational linguistics and the ACL
community. The current Fellows can be found here: https://aclweb.org/aclwiki/ACL_Fellows.
ACL fellows can only be chosen following a nomination from the membership. The selection of
Fellows is handled by the nominating committee, consisting of the three most recent past ACL
presidents and six ACL Fellows. For more details of the rules and criteria for ACL Fellows, please
refer to https://www.aclweb.org/adminwiki/index.php?title=Fellows_Program.
Nominations, which require two recommenders beyond the nominator are due October 1. It is the
nominator’s job to ensure that recommendations are received by the deadline; incomplete
nominations will be deferred to the following year. Nominations can be made through this page:
https://www.aclweb.org/portal/acl-fellows. Please note that you must log in to your ACL account
before you can access the nominations page.
Instructions for how to submit nominations can be found on the website. If you have questions,
please contact Shiqi Zhao (secretary [at] aclweb.org).
Regards,
Shiqi Zhao, ACL Secretary
