contribute significantly to women in history, whether in the profession in the present or in the study of

women in the past. It is not intended that there be any significant restrictions placed on how a given

recipient shall spend the award as long as it advances the recipient’s scholarship goals and purposes. All

recipients will be required to submit a final paper to CCWH on how the award was expended and

summarizing the scholarly work completed. The deadline for the award is 15 May 2015. Please go to
