# Szigetvári proposes to set up the current meeting link as a permanent meeting place at 2pm Tuesdays in the term in case members of the department would like to meet.
# The papers submitted to //The Even Yearbook 14// are due to be published in March. The Department discusses the whereabouts of submissions and reviews.
# Student numbers in intro, phono, and syntax courses are settled, some groups have taken more than 20 students.
# There is very large demand for BA specialization courses, groups have between 20 and 30 students, but meagre demand for MA courses.
# The Department does not yet experience the surge of thesis writers expected after other departments have limited the number of supervisees their members can take.
