Russian and East European Institute

Daniel Armstrong Memorial Research Paper Award

This competition is dedicated to the memory of IU Slavics alumnus, teacher, scholar, and administrator, Professor Daniel Armstrong (1942-1979). Awards are presented to students for papers written for a class in Russian, East European or Central Eurasian studies taken during the previous academic year. The first and second place winners will receive a monetary prize and framed certificate of recognition.

The papers are read during the summer by a panel of REEI faculty. Faculty members whose students submitted papers are ineligible for judging the competition. The judges do not know the identities of the student writers. Papers are submitted directly by students.

Students may submit only one entry per year. Papers must be submitted by the second Friday after the spring semester final exams week. Awards are presented to the authors of the winning papers in September at the annual REEI fall reception for faculty and students. Recent Armstrong award winners
