Upon matriculation, students are expected to provide up-to-date address, telephone, and email information to the Linguistics Department Office and to update them as necessary throughout the time they are enrolled in the degree program. It is especially important that students activate their University of Delaware email account (and set up email forwarding if they use a different account). Students should obtain keys to the Department and graduate student offices from the Linguistics Office. These keys will be retained throughout the students' enrollment.

Each student has a mailbox in the Linguistics building, 46 E. Delaware Ave., and an account for the copy machine and printer. Students will be charged per copy for the use of the copy machine and printer at the end of each semester (price per copy will be posted each year). There are graduate offices located at 46 E. Delaware Ave., shared by all graduate students. Students have access to computers and a telephone. The telephone is set up for local calls only. The building has a wireless network to enable students to use their own computers.

Graduate students in the Linguistics Department run the Linguistics Association of Delaware (LAD), a student organization. All students are expected to be active members of this organization and to participate in its activities and governance. In addition, the Department strongly recommends that graduate students join the Linguistic Society of America.
