I am currently a college student in Minnesota, in the US, studying Linguistics and Computer Science. I really enjoy spending lots of time digging through old newspaper archives, and I get a lot of chances to do this in school, especially in work for my Linguistics degree. I am very comfortable searching through local newspaper archives, often non-English archives, for endangered language documentation information, and I would enjoy the chance to apply these (otherwise somewhat unnecessary) skills to this project. Additionally, I am comfortable writing short scripts to go through large quantities of text when I sense that a search could be better accomplished programmatically. Thank you for your consideration.
