Each year HECAA offers its Wiebenson Prize, for the best graduate student paper presented during the previous calendar year at a scholarly conference or as a sponsored lecture. The prize awarded at the HECAA annual spring luncheon at ASECS, and comes with modest remuneration. Students may submit papers (as read, without notes, but with xerox illustrations) to President Anne Schroder, in triplicate. She will then forward it to an ad hoc committee of three who will select the best paper for the prize. Honorable mention is also an option for papers of distinction that do not win the prize. Student winners must be members in good standing of HECAA. The deadline is March 1. Send submissions to: Anne Schroder (at the mailing address above).
