The Louis Kampf Writing Prize in Women's and Gender Studies

The writing prize, sponsored by The Program in Women's and Gender Studies (WGS), was started in 1995-96 to honor Louis Kampf, distinguished professor emeritus of Literature and Women's Studies, and to reward high quality undergraduate writing in women's and gender studies. The Prize is judged by faculty from WGS and from Comparative Media Studies | Writing (CMS | W).
