The Family Section Distinguished Career Award
Deadline: 3/1/2016 This award recognizes the collective body of a person’s work as it relates to the sociology of the family (not a single publication). Award winners may be selected on the basis of distinguished contributions to either research or service. Service to the field includes developments (such as data sets, analytic techniques, or highly-cited scholarly publications) that have had a substantial impact on family research. Send a one-page justification with your nomination. The nominee’s CV is helpful but not necessary. The deadline is March 1, 2016. Committee Chair: Sarah Damaske at sarahdamaske@psu.edu The Family Section Article of the Year Award Deadline: 3/1/2016 This award recognizes a journal article that has made a significant contribution to the field of family sociology. The award committee will accept nominations for articles published in 2013, 2014, or 2015. Nominations may be made by the author or others. To nominate an article, please send a letter of nomination (not to exceed one page) that details the contribution of the article to the field of family sociology, as well as an electronic copy of the article, to the chair of the award committee, Kevin Roy (kroy@umd.edu). The deadline for nominations is March 1, 2016. Committee Chair: Kevin Roy at kroy@umd.edu The Family Section Outstanding Graduate Student Paper Award Deadline: 3/1/2016 Graduate students are invited to submit an article-length paper on the family. The paper should represent a finished product rather than a proposal for future work. The submission can be based on a course paper, a recently published journal article, a manuscript under review at a journal, or a conference presentation. Co-authored papers are acceptable if all authors are students, although the prize will be shared. The paper must have been written when the author was enrolled in a graduate program. Please send the paper by March 1, 2016 to Ann Meier (meierann@umn.edu). Committee Chair: Ann Meier, meierann@umn.edu
