    Call for Nominations:
    The Everett Cherrington Hughes Award for Careers Scholarship
    Deadline: March 17, 2007

    The Hughes award recognizes scholarship which has made a significant
    contribution to the task of linking careers theory with the broader field
    of organization studies.

    It is the Careers Division=s premier award, a way of honouring those of
    our colleagues who have worked to build bridges between careers and other
    areas of organizational enquiry. The aim of this award is to acknowledge
    the work of scholars who have forged, rather than severed, connections
    between careers and other fields of social inquiry. The award carries,
    with the permission of his family, the name of Everett Cherrington Hughes.
    It does so to commemorate his seminal role in establishing careers as an
    object of scholarly study, but more particularly because it rewards the
    kind of contribution his work embodied. Past recipients of the award are:
    Ed Schein, Tim Hall, Lotte Bailyn and Mike Arthur.

    Nomination materials should be emailed to committee chair Sherry E.
    Sullivan (ssulliv@bgnet.bgsu.edu). The following information is required
    for a nomination to be considered and must be emailed as one unit by the
    March 17th deadline: (1) letter of support from primary nominator, (2) a
    copy of the nominee’s vita, and (3) at least one additional letter of
    support. Letters of support should clearly detail how the nominee meets
    the requirements of this honor. Also, in addition to organizing the
    nomination, the primary nominator is responsible for communicating with
    the nominee and with those who write letters of support. Please remember
    that the award committee does not use a rolling nomination procedure.

    Thank you in advance for your participation in this important process.
    Please call 419.372.2366 or email Sherry with any questions.
