AWFA Annual Awards: Nominations Due March 17

The Association of Women Faculty and Administrators (AWFA) invites you to nominate candidates for three annual awards. These will be presented at the awards breakfast tentatively scheduled for April 13 at 8 a.m. at the Sheraton Hotel. Nominations are invited for the following awards:

The Lenore Williams Award: In 1984, AWFA received a bequest from Lenore Williams, wife of former provost Edwin B. Williams. In her honor, AWFA established an award to be given each year to an outstanding female scholar or leader. Preference will be given to a distinguished woman, affiliated with Penn, whose contributions extend within and beyond our campus.

The Alice Paul Awards: Named in honor of Dr. Alice Paul--suffragist leader, founder of the National Women's Party, author of the Equal Rights Amendment, Penn alumna, and internationally known humanitarian--the awards are presented to undergraduate or graduate women in recognition of their outstanding service to women. We wish to honor those who made contributions to women in the Penn community.

The Robert E. Davies Award: This award is in honor of the late feminist and distinguished Penn scholar. The award will be bestowed on an individual involved in social change.

The Lynda Hart Award, established in Spring, 2001: The award is given to a woman student who has made an outstanding contribution to the artistic life of the Penn campus. The award is in memory of Lynda Hart, professor of English, who was a mentor to many and a moving force behind the Women's Theater Festival.

With your nomination, include the following: specify award, name of nominee, the nature of the nominee's achievement and why you consider the contribution to be meritorious, position of nominee, mailing address, phone number, e-mail address, your name, position, mailing address, phone number, e-mail address.

Please submit nominations by March 17, 2004 to: Kristin Davidson, Chair, Awards Committee, AWFA, College of Arts & Sciences, 120 Logan Hall/6304 or kdavidsn@sas.upenn.edu.

If your nominee is selected, we will invite you to say a few words of introduction on her behalf at the Awards Breakfast.
