I am pleased and proud to announce the Graduate Student Paper Award Winners for the 2020 Annual CPP Conference, “Peace and Hope in Dark Times” (rescheduled from October 2020 to January 2021 because of COVID-19).
The winners are:
Outstanding Paper Award: Rashad Rehman, “Pieper’s Defense of Aquinas on Peace”
Outstanding Paper Award: Dakota Layton, “Fake News in the Information Age: The Challenges it Poses for Peace”
Honorable Mention: Victor Abundez Guerra, “Collective Responsibility With Blame”
Please join me in congratulating the winners—Congratulations!—and thanking all of those who submitted papers for consideration. CPP strives to encourage and support the next generation of scholars, and we hope that these graduate student paper awards go some way toward furthering that goal.
In addition, thanks to our CPP prize subcommittee: Andrew Fiala, Paula Smithka, and Danielle Poe. Without their work and deliberations, we wouldn’t be able to make these awards!
Jennifer Kling
CPP Executive Director
