Students receive feedback from the general conference audience as well as from mentors specifically assigned according to the topic of their work. We invite papers in two different categories: * Thesis Proposals: This category is appropriate for advanced students who have decided on a thesis topic and wish to get feedback on their proposal and broader ideas for their continuing work. * Research Papers: Papers in this category can describe completed work, or work in progress with preliminary results. For these papers, the first author must be a current graduate or undergraduate student. Topics of interest for the SRW are the same as NAACL main conference. See the list of topics at http://naacl2018.org/call_for_paper.html.
