The Sexuality and Space Specialty Group of the Association of American
Geographers is pleased to invite submissions for the 2011 Sexuality and Space
Student Paper Competition. Winners will be notified prior to the 2011 Annual
Meeting of the AAG in Seattle, WA, and will be invited to attend the award
dinner. Submission deadline: March 25, 2011.
Eligibility: Any student currently enrolled in an undergraduate, masters or
doctoral degree program in Geography or a related discipline may submit a paper
written in the past year (since 1 March 2010). Co-authored papers are welcome
so long as the co-authors are students rather than research supervisors or
other academic staff. Papers are welcome from students at institutions outside
the United States. Students do not necessarily have to be presenting a paper at
this year's annual meeting of the Association of American Geographers to be
eligible for an award.
Requirements: We are seeking excellent quality student papers that advance the
study of sexuality and space. Papers should be 4000-6000 words in length
(including explanatory footnotes/endnotes, but excluding references), with an
additional 100-200 word abstract. Figures and images should be included as
separate pages rather than embedded within the text. Papers should be properly
referenced, although students may choose the citation method they think
appropriate. Papers should be in English.
Submission Procedure: Ideally, submissions will be made electronically. Please
send email to Dr. Eric Olund ([log in to unmask]) with the paper attached
as a PDF, Microsoft Word, or other standard word processing program file. If
electronic submission is not possible, please send three paper copies (double
sided copies are fine) to Dr. Eric Olund, Department of Geography, University
of Sheffield, Winter Street, Sheffield S10 2TN, United Kingdom. Please be sure
to include your name, postal address, telephone, and email address on the front
cover of your paper, so that we can contact you if necessary.
Deadline: Papers must be received by 25 March 2011 to be considered.
