Spring 2022 H. Russell Bernard Student Paper Prize and Travel Awards
The Society for Anthropological Sciences (SAS) invites submissions for the H. Russell Bernard Student Paper Prize ($500.00) and two Travel Awards ($300.00 each) this spring. These prizes are awarded for scholarly work by students that exemplifies the mission of SAS to support empirical scientific research in any area of anthropology.

You do not need to be a SAS member at the time of submission (although we do encourage you to join by adding us as a section on the AAA website!).
