The Department of Feminist Studies will award the Charlotte Stough Memorial Prize annually to a Feminist Studies Doctoral Emphasis student whose research extends the boundaries of gender inflected knowledge specifically related to scholarship arising out of women's 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 Doctoral Emphasis students. Applications to the Doctoral Emphasis Program will be accepted with Stough Prize submissions. The winner will also receive recognition at graduation.
