AEJMC Deutschmann and Blum Awards: Call for Nominations
The AEJMC Standing Committee on Research encourages nominations for two awards.
The Paul J. Deutschmann Award for Excellence in Research recognizes a body of significant research over the course of an individual’s career. The award is named in honor of Paul J. Deutschmann, who developed the College of Communication Arts at Michigan State University.
The Eleanor Blum Distinguished Service to Research Award was created to recognize people who have devoted substantial parts of their careers to promoting research in mass communication. It is named in honor of its first recipient, Eleanor Blum, a long-time communication librarian at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
The Deutschmann and Blum awards are not necessarily given every year, but awards for both will be considered for 2010. Nominations must be received by November 2, 2009, and should include a letter describing the nominee’s contributions in the area of the award. The packet also should include the nominee’s C.V. and at least five additional letters of support (preferably more) from colleagues who can attest to the candidate’s qualifications for the award. Nominators should represent a range of institutions and perspectives on the nominee’s accomplishments.
Nomination letters and packets for the Deutschmann Award should be sent to Patricia Curtin, School of Journalism and Communication, 1275 University of Oregon, Eugene, OR 97403-1275. Please direct any question to Dr. Curtin at 541-346-3752 or [log in to unmask]
