Submission Deadline April 10, 2018Papers will be judged on the clarity of writing, the centrality of gender and gendered themes within the paper and the sophistication
and analytical merit of the themes and arguments made by the author. Judges will also take into account the disciplinary

paper in psychology, etc.

dissertations are not appropriate entries for this competition.
Please solicit papers from your students and email them to Kimbery Kelly by April 10. Faculty, if you are willing to serve as a judge
