To nominate, e-mail Deborah Lyons (lyonsd@muohio.edu), including name, title, and contact information for the nominee (WCC members’ email addresses may be obtained from Ruby Blondell, at blondell@u.washington.edu; or try google.com). Self-nominations are encouraged; information related to nominations is confidential. ALL SUBMISSIONS MUST BE ANONYMOUS, i.e., free of all clues to the author’s identity.
