 note = {This paper presents a case study of the Catherine Prelinger Award, established in 1998 by
the Coordinating Council on Women Historians (CCWH). The CCWH, originally launched
in 1970 as a women’s caucus in the American Historical Association, has been committed to
exploring the diverse experiences and histories of all women and to promoting research and
interpretation in areas of women’s history by both female and male scholars.
The Award was made possible by an anonymous donor, and the Agreement to Fund
Scholarship stated that the award will be given to a scholar with either a Ph.D. or an A.B.D.
“who has not followed the traditional academic path of uninterrupted and completed
secondary, undergraduate, and graduate degrees leading into a tenured faculty position.” The
Agreement also stated that “although the recipient’s degrees do not have to be in history, the
recipient’s work should be clearly historical in nature; in accordance with the general goals
of CCWH, the award is intended to recognize or to enhance the ability of the recipient to
contribute significantly to women in history, whether in the profession in the present or in the
study of women in the past.”
This study analyzes application forms the candidates submitted during the time span of
1998-2008 and discusses some problems and issues that the CCWH had to address in selecting
the winners. In order to select the best “non-traditional” scholars, the CCWH created a “nontraditional”
ranking system (point system). The CCWH also devised a special application form
that highlights the unique qualities of the candidates’ choices in coping with a nontraditional
career path.},
