My first thought is that it should be SWIP, E-SWIP in this case.  As you point out FEAST isn't an association that has sessions at FEAST.  So maybe this thought should be sent to the SWIP-listserve?  A commemorative award.  I like the idea and as so many feminist philosophers who were pioneers in this area are aging, I am sad to say this is something that we should think about--another way to keep alive and recognize the work of those who have built the mansion we live in.

We’d/FEAST would need to get credentialized with the APA to do a session at a devision meeting, but we could start by doing a memorial session at our next FEAST conference.  Or E-SWIP could add a memorial session to its APA agenda.  What would be best, I wonder?  diana
