Post 4: Interview Preparation


1: Doctor Sarah Higley.  Doctor Higley is a professor of Medieval Literature at the University of Rochester.  She is a well-known for her constructed language, Teonaht, as well as her writings on Hildegard of Bingen, one of the very first recognized language inventors.
