The Department of Feminist Studies awards the Charlotte Stough Memorial Prize annually to a Feminist Studies or Feminist Studies Doctoral Emphasis student whose research extends the boundaries of gender inflected knowledge specifically related to scholarship arising out of feminist studies.
Charlotte Stough, one of the founders of the Women's Studies Program at the University of California, Santa Barbara, was a professor in the Philosophy Department. She taught at UCSB from 1963 until her retirement in 1991, and from 1982 to 1985 was Associate Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs. Professor Stough earned her Ph.D. at the University of California, Berkeley. Her academic research combined a lively engagement in Classical Greek moral philosophy and in contemporary feminist writing.
Competition for the Charlotte Stough Memorial Prize, which includes a monetary award, is open to all UCSB Feminist Studies graduate students (MA/PhD or Doctoral Emphasis). Applications to the Doctoral Emphasis Program are accepted with Stough Prize submissions. The winner also receives recognition at graduation.
If you have questions about the Stough Memorial Prize, please contact Barbara Tomlinson at btomlinson@femst.ucsb.edu.
