The Gender & Women's Studies Department at the State University of New York

(dis)ability, religion, and culture. Entries should be major essays or
research papers (at least 1000 words in length). *This year's Writing

Achievement Awards Ceremony on May 20, 2022, carries with it a cash award
of $100.*
