The CUSS Student Paper Award


The CUSS Student Paper Award Committee invites submissions for the 2009 best graduate student paper in community and urban sociology.  The competition is open to both published and unpublished article-length papers (roughly 25 pages in length without tables or references) written by a graduate student in the last two years (2007 or 2008).  The committee will accept sole-authored and multiple-authored papers as long as the applicant is lead or senior author.  No student-faculty collaborations can be accepted.  The Committee will select the paper that demonstrates the most thoughtful, competent or innovative analysis of a theoretical or empirical issue that is germane to the Section’s main interests. All submissions must be received electronically by March 1, 2010. They should be sent to Marlese Durr (Chair), Wright State University marese.durr@wright.edu
