The Philip
A. Hart Award
In 1983 the Board of
Directors of the Michigan Women's Studies Association voted
to establish a special award as part of the Michigan Women's
Hall of Fame honors program.
This award is presented
annually to: "A Michigan male citizen who, during the year
preceding or in a career that has demonstrated unique
understanding and support of women's issues and concerns,
and who has contributed significantly to the advancement of
women's rights and interests either in Michigan or on the
national scene."
The Board also voted to name
this special award after the late Senator Philip A. Hart,
who in 1983 became, posthumously, its first recipient.
Unlike the Hall of Fame
awards, the Philip A. Hart Award is to be conferred by a
vote of the Board of Directors. The Board, however, is
interested in soliciting nominations for this special award
from the general public. For further information, please
contact the Michigan Women's Studies Association at
517-484-1880 ext. 203 or
