4S reminder: prize nominations due by Friday

I’m aware this is short notice, but just realized this wasn’t posted on Eurograd.

Please consider submitting the work of your colleagues or yourselves, for the 4S prizes.
The pieces submitted to the Mullins (student) prize do not need to be published. They can also be draft thesis chapters that are reframed to allow reading the text out of the context of the dissertation; it is not an article prize per se.
* For all awards, self-nominations are fine.

Best wishes,
Teun
