• Cultural Geography Specialty Group Awards
  The CGSG, for whom I am excited to be part of the leadership committee this year at the American Association of Geographers, have just announced a pair of awards to be announced at this year’s conference in Denver. They are open to students at the PhD and MA level. Those interested can find the application for the Research Grant here and the application for the Paper Award here. The deadlines are February 16th and 23rd, respectively.
