 *CALL FOR NOMINEES AND SUBMISSIONS*

*FOR THE 2013 QUEER STUDIES SIG SCHOLAR-ACTIVIST AWARDS*****



*The Queer Studies SIG Scholar-Activist Awards Program *aims to strengthen
and broaden the links between activism and research as they relate to
LGBTTIQ people in education, to the relationships between sexuality/gendCr
and education, and to education-based approaches to challenging
heterosexism, homophobia, and other forms of oppression. We are inviting
applications from those who offer groundbreaking approaches to working with
these linkages and addressing these topics through activist research.

****

*The 2013 Awards are as follows: *****

·       Dissertation of the Year Award****

·       Article of the Year Award****

·       Body of Work Award****

·       Graduate Student Travel Grant *(not an official AERA award - funds
for travel to AERA to present in the Queer Studies SIG program)*

* *

Submissions will be evaluated for academic rigor, scientific or scholarly
significance of the study or work, and how they support and advance
interdisciplinary discourse including queer theory, queer students and
educators, curriculum and sexuality, and issues of intersectionality.

the Awards Committee****
