    A DISTRIBUTIONAL ANALYSIS OF RURAL COLORADO ENGLISH by LAMONT D. ANTIEAU (Under the Direction of William A. Kretzschmar, Jr.) ABSTRACT This dissertation describes a study in linguistic geography conducted in Colorado using the methodology of the Linguistic Atlas of the Western States. As such, the goals of this dissertation are threefold: 1) to provide a description of Colorado English with respect to select lexical, phonetic, and syntactic features; 2) to compare the results of work in Colorado with previous work conducted in the eastern states as well as in Colorado and other western states; and 3) to use inferential statistics to show correlation between the distribution of specific linguistic variants and the social characteristics of those informants who use these variants. The major findings of this study include the observation that linguistic variants are distributed according to a power law, that numerous variants have statistically significant social correlates at all levels of the grammar, and that the relative effect of social variables differ at each linguistic level.

What an appropriate place for the 2017 annual meeting of the Mountain-Plains Museums Association (MPMA), an organization where the museums of the mountains and plains come together. And MPMA even had its origins in this area. Here you will discover Western Altitudes and Western Attitude at our museums, historic sites, and within our people. John Deutschendorf was so impressed by Denver that he took it as his last name, becoming one of Colorado’s beloved balladeers, singing about our altitudes and our attitudes. John Denver wasn’t alone in his attraction to the area; millions have been rushing to the state since gold was discovered in 1859. What you will discover during our conference is that Denver is not just a single city but an entire region offering many great cultural resources as well as great scenic beauty. Our evening events will capitalize on the best that the Denver area has to offer. The opening event will be hosted in the heart of Denver by History Colorado, site of exhibits about Colorado’s history (including “Backstory: Western American Art in Context,” an exciting collaboration with the Denver Art Museum), and by the Clyfford Still Museum, where the works and life of one of the fathers of abstract expressionism are exhibited.
