GRAD STUDENTS: Apply for the Siegel Award!

Graduate students, don’t forget to apply for the fantastic, new Larry J. Siegel Graduate Fellowship for the Study of Gender and Crime.  The award gives $5,000 to a graduate student doing original research, program or service development, implementation, and/or evaluation, or advocacy.

The application deadline is March 15th.  You can find all the information about who is eligible, what types of projects can be funded, and how to apply at https://ascdwc.com/student-awards.  We want to see some great applications!  Faculty members, please pass this along to appropriate graduate students.  Let’s get the word out!

DWC Constitutional Amendments Passed

I’m happy to report that the constitutional revisions to add a graduate student representative and archivist were overwhelmingly approved.  The addition of a graduate student representative received almost 95% support and the addition of an archivist received 100% support.  Please join me in welcoming Chris Rasche as our first OFFICIAL DWC Archivist!

Elections for DWC offices will be happening soon.  We’ll be electing a new chair, two new executive counselors, and our first graduate student representative.  Thanks to all of you who participated in the democratic process!

Electronic Ballot Sent Friday, 8/16: Did You Receive It?

Earlier today I sent an electronic ballot to all DWC members in good standing via Survey Monkey.

If you did NOT receive this email (it came from dejongc@msu.edu), it means one of several things:
1. The ballot went into your spam folder
2. You are not currently a member in good standing of the DWC
3. You just joined the DWC in the last two weeks
We will be sending the ballot out again when we received an updated membership list on August 30th.

If you need to renew your Division membership, you can do so at http://asc41.com/appform1.html, but you must renew prior to September 1st to vote. Any memberships received by ASC after 9/1/13 will be credited to the 2014 membership year.
Thanks, and let me know if you have any questions.
