Subject: Awards FROM THE LEFT
The Marxist Section of the American Sociology Association has two
Awards for excellence in progressive scholarship--preferably
class analysis and politics, education, health care, gender roles,
crim and social control tactics, majority/minority relations, and
the like.
The Deadline has been extended to 14 June, 1996...partly because
ASA did not get the announcements out and partly because I have
been remiss in my duties...but you redeem our irresponsibilities and
get good work before the two Committees soonest.
1. The Al Syzmanski Award is for Graduate Students who have
written a paper or finished a thesis which responds to the
quest for a praxis sociology and a praxis society.
Send nominees/papers/supportive materials to the Chair:
MARTIN MURRAY,
Sociology, SUNY
at Binghamton, N.Y.,

2. The Scholarly Achievement Award. This Award goes to Faculty
and/or Research Scholars who have contributed in a given work,
over a life-time or has made some most helpful contribution to
progressive scholarship.

Stephanie Shanks-Meile,
