5 - 6 Page Paper Awards

All Arts & Sciences graduate students from The College of William & Mary and visiting institutions, whose abstracts are accepted for presentation in the Twelfth Annual Graduate Research Symposium, are eligible to submit a  5 - 6 page paper for award consideration in their respective categories.  Please review the award guidelines below for complete details.

Please note that paper submissions must be primarily the work of the graduate student who is submitting the paper, and the submitter has the responsibility to obtain permission from co-authors prior to submission.  Also, all graduate students are reminded that the College of William & Mary's Honor Code prohibits them from submitting the same paper twice for award consideration.  However, work that is created as a result of the original submission or builds upon its theory, method, etc. may be re-submitted.  This usually means that the original work has had a period of at least a year for substantial alteration and development so that it reflects on-going scholarship.

Monetary awards will be presented at the Awards Luncheon at the Graduate Research Symposium to selected participants who submit a 5 - 6 page paper by the deadline.

Please contact the Symposium Committee prior to submitting your award paper if you have any questions.

First Call for Award Paper Submissions:  December 10, 2012

Deadline for Award Paper Submissions:  11:59 pm EST on January 4, 2013
