Paper Call: Minorities and Communication Division The Minorities and Communication Division invites submissions of original research on any topic related to minorities in communications. Submissions employing all methods of inquiry are invited. Papers should include appropriate literature reviews, methodology, findings, and discussion. Only one paper per primary author will be accepted. The term “minorities” has been defined to include Latinos, African Americans, Asian Americans, and Native Americans. Thus, papers examining how these groups present images, news, and information about themselves, as well as those examining how issues related to race and diversity are featured in the media, would generally fall into this division’s area of interest. Papers should not be more than 25 pages, excluding references, tables, figures, and other graphics. The MAC Division is sponsoring two “Award Winning Paper” competitions at this year’s convention: Top faculty and the Alan Bussel Award for Top Student Paper. The “Top” three faculty papers and the “top” student paper will be selected from among the refereed papers submitted to the MAC Divisions competitions. Students must identify their papers as such (“Student Paper”) on the title page of their submission. All sole- or co-authors of these papers must be students; papers co-authored by students and faculty should be submitted to the Faculty Research Paper competition. A first place winner in the “Top” faculty paper competition will receive $200. The second place winner will receive $100 and the third place winner will receive $75. The student winner will receive a complimentary ticket for the MAC luncheon during this year’s convention and $100. Certificates will be awarded to each of the winners. In addition, the other top student papers will have the opportunity to participate in a scholar-to-scholar session.
