[Xmca-l] Re: Reminder: Call for Nominations! Cultural-Historical SIG Awards (Due date: 12/20): Graduate Student Award_Early Career Award_Lifetime Contribution Award

Sat Dec 19 11:55:34 PST 2020

Hi Lois,

First, thank you for your generous gift of the Handbook of Cultural
Psychology and your very thoughtful note. I choked up when I read it to my
husband. I spent time reviewing the book this morning, I love it and will
refer to it often. Thank you for your thoughtfulness and generosity!

I am so happy for you - your study is a very sensitive and significant
piece of work and I am confident that it will make an important
contribution to our veteran community - and to HOL. It was my great
pleasure to accompany you on your doctoral journey.

I want to let you know that I intend to nominate you for the Graduate
Student Award of the AERA Cultural Historical Research SIG (more below).
You should look out for a request for a 1000 word abstract from the award
committee and, hopefully a 5000 word paper if you make it to the final
round. A version of the paper we submitted for the AERA conference should
be sufficient.

Wishing you and your family a wonderful holiday season and a very healthy
2021!

Best
Ellen
