Dear Amy,
I don't want to spearhead this year's DWP and actually started to rethink my offer to serve on the committee almost as soon as I had impulsively made it.
I have one particular reason for not wanting to do the job this year, namely that I have a candidate for DWP whom I have been wanting to propose for some time.
However, I also have a more general concern that the selection committee should be credibly representative of a broad philosophical constituency. If the members of the selection committee are merely self-appointed volunteers, the award has little value. Perhaps there should be a representative from each division of SWIP. We might even consider having representatives from other groups such as FEAST and FEMMSS. The selection committee should also be as broad as possible in terms of demographics, type of institution, areas of phil expertise, etc.
Best,
Alison

Hi All,
Yes, Alison, it would be wonderful if you would be willing to spearhead the DWP award while this all gets settled!
Your help and experience/expertise is much appreciated,
Amy

Hi All,
Pacific SWIP has been struggling with the same challenges as reported for E-SWIP – difficulty in finding colleagues who would serve in the various offices. As a result, much of what we do has been to support others who hold more regional/local symposia and events, support graduate student participation in related events, and support colleagues offering panels and sessions at P-APA, etc. Our operations are therefore incredibly, unfortunately, minimal.
I do appreciate your efforts to revive E-SWIP, and hope that it begins to inspire a revival of P-SWIP as well. It seems, of the three divisions, MidWest-SWIP is the most operationally intact. If they are able to sponsor and organize the Distinguished Woman Philosopher award, that would be wonderful! Perhaps, additionally, and beyond the award issue, we need to have a conversation about SWIP’s revival and renewal more generally.
Cheers,

I think that would be great. Johanna and Amy, is this OK with you?
NOTE: I'm on research leave 1/19-9/19, and am also swamped with email. It may take me longer than usual to get back to you. If there is time pressure for a response, please email me again and include URGENT in the subject line. I'll do my best to get back to you. Thanks.

Dear Sally,
Thank you for your leadership in reviving ESWIP. Until that division is functioning again, I wonder if the process of selecting a Distinguished Woman Philosopher of the Year might be taken over by one of the other divisions, or perhaps by Midwest SWIP and Pacific SWIP working together? I have previously served on the selection committee and I'd be glad to do so again for a bit.
Best,
Alison

Dear all:
ESWIP has been on hiatus due a lack of volunteers to be officers. The previous officers and a couple of others (including me) are trying to revive it. Towards this end, we are creating an ESWIP email list. This list will be a way to communicate with ESWIP about the Distinguished Woman Philosopher of the Year, about ESWIP panels and sessions at the APA, about ESWIP workshops, conferences, etc. You do not need to pay dues to be on the email list. Women philosophers and feminist allies are welcome to join. (Note too that SWIPs don't have a geographical residence requirement!)
In the past, ESWIP has been run by an Executive Secretary and a Treasurer. It is open to ESWIP to revise its structure and be run by a Steering Committee or something of that sort. One person has agree to help but not be an "officer," so if we get a few people to step up to help, a committee structure might work. (It may even be worth reconsidering the divisional structure of SWIP and join forces in a national SWIP - you could be part of this conversation!) The form that invites you to sign up for the list also asks about whether you might help in other ways. If we don't find a new governance structure, ESWIP will disappear. This is your opportunity to be part of the new SWIP! :)
Please complete this form<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__goo.gl_forms_1juwYvar9m8wwFeJ2&d=DwMFaQ&c=eLbWYnpnzycBCgmb7vCI4uqNEB9RSjOdn_5nBEmmeq0&r=Oo4TCJF8pXcsWPDC7Sy8bdP2IJ6ZbST0v2xdYtuNH80&m=Ug2K4aS-hpqgNhvK1NmpIvIhw-Nn9cBWPpL--4NnV_8&s=6COg2gXSQJsGr25XJqToNEPnLRpIYZN2hJgzkeHqMEI&e=> to be on the ESWIP email list. Please spread the word - forward this to your lists.
best, Sally
