Alden Dissertation Prize
This award is given to a Stanford doctoral graduate in English whose dissertation shows “the greatest promise of scholarly achievement.”Gerald J. Lieberman Fellowship
“The Lieberman Fellowship will be awarded to outstanding advanced doctoral students who intend to pursue a career in university teaching and research and who have demonstrated the potential for leadership roles in the academic community.” The award emphasizes the importance of research, strong teaching evaluations and background, and academic service.Stanford University
Graduate Student/Instructor
During my time in grad school, I wrote a 250-page dissertation on multicultural encounters in early modern literature, and was active in academic service, including the university Committee on Research and the English department’s Graduate Student Council and Finance Committee. As a student member of the Graduate Admissions Committee, I participated in both interviews and decision-making. Teaching in both the English department and the Program of Writing and Rhetoric was an essential part of the work; so was publishing academic articles and participating in national and international conferences. I received approximately $250,000 in fellowships (including tuition funding) from various sources.University of California, Berkeley
