Subject: Call for Reviewers

 

Would you please send this out to all MAC member? I have both sent it as attachment and as part of the email. Hope it will not be a problem,

Thanks a bunch!

Colleagues,

Submissions for the MAC faculty and student paper competition will be here soon and I need your help!  Last year we had an incredible amount of well written research papers for both faculty and students. I anticipate receiving submissions that use a variety of approaches and research methods, including, but not limited to, critical, empirical, ethnographic, historical, legal and semiotic, in the area of race and ethnicity.

Last year we needed at least twice as many judges as we had to make it easier on those of you who volunteered. Some of you were fantastic and went out of your way to help out in reviewing for both faculty as well as student research. Some of you reviewed 4 or five papers and even went as far as answering my call when some reviewers were unable to carry their load and I needed some emergency judges.

I hope we can recruit twice as many judges so that each one of you only reviews 3 papers.  If you are submitting a paper to our division, you obviously cannot review faculty papers, but we definitely appreciate your help with student research. I am asking you to please help us out by referring at least one more person to review this year.

If you would like to serve as a judge and offer constructive criticism to faculty and student scholars –please email me: Faculty Research Chair Petra Guerra, University of Texas Pan America: at [log in to unmask]  In your message, please include the following information:

We sincerely appreciate your help with reviewing. All reviewers will receive a personal letter of thanks for use in tenure reviews or annual reviews.
