The
Mary Roth Walsh Teaching the Psychology of Women Award is an
award sponsored by Div. 35 Society for the Psychology of Women
in honor of the late Mary Roth Walsh. Dr. Walsh was the founder
of the Teaching the Psychology of Women Institute (begun in 1988),
the author of several texts, and a committed teacher devoted to

We
particularly want to encourage teaching innovations. We are looking for individuals who have
devised a creative approach, exercise, or assignment for increasing
diversity in teaching the psychology of women or gender. Diversity
includes, but is not limited to, race, class, ethnicity, sexual
orientation, and ablebodiedness.

of Women (or whose application for membership is currently being
submitted) are eligible.
To apply:
Please send the following materials:
