The
Scholarly Writing in English Prizes:
These prizes, first awarded in 2000, were made possible by a
generous founding donation by Professor Margaret
Thickstun of Hamilton College in New York. (The prizes
have since be supplemented by other donations. If
you'd like to donate something, please contact
Department Chair
Susanne Weil.) Professor Thickstun
was the outside reviewer in the English Department self
study that led to the creation of our new major, and she
felt so strongly about wanting to help us establish a
scholarly writing prize that she donated a substantial
portion of her fees to make it possible. The Scholarly
Writing Prizes honor the best writing about literature by
our current students. If you write a paper you're
particularly proud of this semester, save it and consider
making a submission!
