About the Journal
History:
The Journal of the Undergraduate Linguistics Association of Britain (JoULAB) was established by the National Committee of the Undergraduate Linguistics Association of Britain (ULAB) in July 2020, during the global SARS-CoV-2 (coronavirus) pandemic in an attempt to provide as many opportunities as possible to undergraduate students of linguistics across the world.
It was initially founded with four Editorial Committee positions: Editor, Head of the Editorial Board (now Board of Reviewers), Associate Editor, and Copyeditor. Now, the Committee has ten members, and the Board of Reviewers has forty-six. Together, we run all aspects of the journal: submissions, reviews, copyediting, and publication.
