Are you planning on submitting a paper to our Annual Conference? Want a chance to earn a scholarship too? Check out these upcoming workshops! #TTUWSC19

  • January 30th, 12PM-1PM, University Library RM 150
  • January 31st, 3:30PM-4:30PM, University Library RM 150

Women's & Gender Studies and the University Library proudly announce an endowment fund named in honor and memory of our friend and colleague, the Sandy River Memorial Endowment.

The TTU Library hosts the workshops. In this workshop participants will learn more about research in gender studies and related fields. Information will also be available on how to submit your abstract and final paper for review to earn a chance at the scholarship.

This scholarship will provide assistance to a student at Texas Tech, with preference, to outstanding graduate or undergraduate students who present library and/or archival research in gender studies or related fields at the annual All University Conference (Note: participants must be available to present their research on Friday, April 26, 2019).
