SHA Student Paper Prize Donations
Each year, student members of the Society for Historical Archaeology, who plan to present papers at the Society’s annual conference, are invited to submit their papers for consideration in the SHA’s Student Paper Prize Competition. The winner of the Student Paper Prize is recognized at the Conference at the SHA’s Annual Business Meeting and receives a prize from the Society.
For the 2014 Conference in Québec, the SHA wishes to present the winner of the Student Paper Prize Competition with a collection of books on historical archaeology. To this end, we are asking publishers to consider donating at least one book to the SHA for this prize. All donations will be acknowledged by the SHA at the 2014 Conference. If you are able to donate a publication for the 2014 Student Paper Prize, please contact
Karen Hutchison at the SHA at hq@sha.org.
