W3 Lunch and Talk with Aimee Morrison and Tom Barber

[Kim H Nguyen]

Dear women-identified and non-binary colleagues in Arts,

Our Arts colleague, Aimèe Morrison, and Tom Barber will be presenting at Waterloo Women’s Wednesdays on November 27 12-1 in NH 3308. W3 cordially invites you to the talk and to have lunch with us. Details below. –KHN

Please join Awards Officer Thomas Barber and 2019 Trudeau Fellow Aimée Morrison, as they take you through the Myths and Realities of applying for Academic Awards and Prizes. Aimée will share the myths she battled in the process of applying for the revamped Trudeau Foundation Fellowship and Tom will take you behind the green curtain to expose the great and powerful A.H.D. (awards, honours, and distinctions).
Fewer than 25% of the people nominated for awards from UW are women. Very few women put themselves forward for open call nominations and we are hoping to change this. At the end of this presentation, attendees will leave with a better understanding of the various steps, stages, and tasks of the awards nomination process, as well as some insider knowledge about less obvious pathways by which scholars and administrators shepherd nominations through this process.
W3 events for the 2019-20 year are sponsored by Faculty Association of UW, Staff Association, Faculty of Applied Health Sciences, Department of English Language and Literature, and the Office of Research.
Vegetarian lunch and refreshments will be provided. Please bring $5-$10 worth of donations for the Kitchener-Waterloo-Cambridge chapter of the Period Purse to benefit marginalized menstruators. Backpacks/totes, period products, winter gloves/mittens and hats, sweet treats like granola bars and chocolates are most appreciated. If you can’t make it out to our event but wish to donate, feel free to reach out to me or to any W3 committee member.
