Academy of Learned Societies for the Social Sciences
Call for nominations for new Academicians
The SPA is a member of the Academy of Learned Societies for the Social
Sciences. Over the past three years we have successfully nominated a number
of SPA members to become Academicians. This is a mark of distinction and
denotes an outstanding contribution to the study and/or practice of social
policy.
We have been invited to submit nominations for the next round of selection
for new Academicians. Existing Academicians are entitled to make one
nomination each per year and 'learned societies' - such as the SPA - can
make up to six nominations.
Nominations need to include the reasons for making the nomination - details
of her/his contribution to the study and/or practice of social science;
evidence of her/his contribution to the aims of the Academy; an up to date
CV; and the agreement of the person being nominated. A copy of the form on
which the nomination has to be submitted can be downloaded from the
Academy's website - www.the-academy.org.uk. If you would like to propose
someone to be nominated by the SPA, please complete the form from the
Academy's website and send it to the SPA Hon. Secretary, Catherine Bochel,
by 10 July 2003. All nominations will be ratified by the SPA Executive
before being forwarded to the Academy.
Catherine Bochel
(SPA Hon. Secretary)
