Cox-Johnson-Frazier Award


Award Description:

In 1971 the ASA Council established the DuBois-Johnson-Frazier Award to honor the intellectual traditions and contributions of W.E.B. DuBois, Charles S. Johnson, and E. Franklin Frazier. In 2006, members of the Association voted to change the name of this award to the Cox-Johnson-Frazier Award. The award is given either to a sociologist for a lifetime of research, teaching, and service to the community or to an academic institution for its work in assisting the development of scholarly efforts in this tradition. Nominations should include a summary of the nominee's career or achievement, and the way in which it is consistent with the traditions of these outstanding scholars and educators. Nominations should include a one- to two-page statement and a vita, if applicable. The deadline for the 2009 award is January 31, 2008.
