*Randy Martin Prize: Call for Nominations and Applications*

The Cultural Studies Association is pleased to announce the creation of
the Randy Martin Prize for the Best Student Paper presented at the
annual CSA conference.  The Prize Committee is: Toby Miller (chair),
Angela McRobbie, Barbara Foley, and Bruce Burgett. Competition for the

Studies Association who have had papers accepted for the 2015 annual
meeting. The winner will be announced at the annual meeting of the
Cultural Studies Association, on *Friday, May 22, 2015.*

The Randy Martin Prize includes a certificate and $500.00 in cash, plus
