The Centre for Research on Language and Culture Contact (CRLCC) brings together the research activities of the faculty members and students of York University who investigate various aspects of language contact at both societal and individual levels. The CRLCC members conduct their research in Toronto, Ontario, other Canadian provinces and other countries throughout the world.
Founded in 2005, the CLRCC has been fostering a vibrant and ongoing programme of collaborative research aimed at:
- promoting collaborative, multidisciplinary research under the umbrella of language contact
- furthering Glendon’s mission of bilingualism
- creating opportunities for graduate students to participate in language research and Centre activities

Collage workshop: Inhabit Your Thesis
This workshop invites graduate students to explore their thesis topic, research subject, or a theme that deeply resonates with them through collage, drawing, and visual assembly. This is a space that deliberately breaks with traditional academic codes: the aim here is not to condense research into 180 seconds, but rather to deploy it in space — for example, on a piece of cardboard — to give it a material, tangible, and free form.
By creating a work based on their research, participants will be able to discuss, share, interact, and reflect differently on what fascinates them, through experimentation, intuition, and creative action. This workshop opens a breach where the thesis ceases to be merely a textual obligation: it becomes a space to inhabit, to collage, to shape—and to think together.
