Dear Friends, I'm writing on behalf of the Board of Eastern SWIP: Thanks to Quill and others for raising important questions about the wording in the Call for Nominations for the 2021 Distinguished Woman Philosopher Award. The issues involved deserve careful and extended discussion, and ought not to be decided on the fly. Moreover, the DWP was established and is awarded by SWIP as a whole; ESWIP simply administers the award process. We on the Board of ESWIP therefore consider that any endorsement, elaboration, or replacement of the traditional wording should be determined by SWIP as a whole. We are endeavoring to convene a discussion among representatives of the regional SWIP's to make this determination. In the meantime, however, since nominations have already started arriving, we have decided to stick to the traditional wording for this round. Thanks again to those whose questions have initiated this important process. Louise Antony, for the Board of ESWIP (Anna Bjurman Pautz, Haley Schilling, Esha Senchaudhuri, and Charlotte Witt) Hear the latest from Bay Area musician Lark: The World is F*cked, But This Show Will Be Pretty Good <https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.youtube.com_watch-3Fv-3DbEAlNDCaHgE&d=DwIFaQ&c=eLbWYnpnzycBCgmb7vCI4uqNEB9RSjOdn_5nBEmmeq0&r=HUp8-bkYMlNgd3ZJBxWBKsBsFAFGHrEZg21p9gxugJA&m=gfVWOM6FuxL2O4an5lCYSahcJ7tJARQQQFYe4_dFbiw&s=ACfoBOx3NLkEnmasSES7p5P7o9kVX4YrDgrA77-XfPM&e= > I Wanna Lose Five Pounds <https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.youtube.com_watch-3Fv-3DiZNRriHkJsI-26t-3D111s&d=DwIFaQ&c=eLbWYnpnzycBCgmb7vCI4uqNEB9RSjOdn_5nBEmmeq0&r=HUp8-bkYMlNgd3ZJBxWBKsBsFAFGHrEZg21p9gxugJA&m=gfVWOM6FuxL2O4an5lCYSahcJ7tJARQQQFYe4_dFbiw&s=OGj_SN6vVCdHmr5rkAJdJ5xjyYt4vqQEeIJ1Lv175wE&e= > The Unicorn Song <https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.google.com_search-3Fclient-3Dfirefox-2Db-2D1-2Dd-26sxsrf-3DALeKk03SoCPCJMugSDWem6of48ddgzD6rA-253A1601579134063-26ei-3Dfih2X6S-2DA8mtytMPuL-2DuoA0-26q-3Drachel-2Blark-2Bunicorn-26oq-3Drachel-2B-26gs-5Flcp-3DCgZwc3ktYWIQARgCMgQIIxAnMgQIIxAnMgQIIxAnMgUIABCRAjIECC4QQzIICC4QsQMQkQIyBAgAEEMyBAgAEEMyBAgAEEMyDQguELEDEIMBEBQQhwI6BAgAEEc6BwgjEOoCECc6BwguEOoCECc6CAguEMcBEK8BOgIIADoCCC46CAguEMcBEKMCOg0ILhCxAxDHARCjAhBDOgUILhCRAlDMQliIT2CPX2gBcAJ4AIABcIgBigWSAQM1LjKYAQCgAQGqAQdnd3Mtd2l6sAEKyAEIwAEB-26sclient-3Dpsy-2Dab&d=DwIFaQ&c=eLbWYnpnzycBCgmb7vCI4uqNEB9RSjOdn_5nBEmmeq0&r=HUp8-bkYMlNgd3ZJBxWBKsBsFAFGHrEZg21p9gxugJA&m=gfVWOM6FuxL2O4an5lCYSahcJ7tJARQQQFYe4_dFbiw&s=xHE6W55piU2c2DM2ql7gswbX3yflpZSy_rxbTjxiDAw&e= > *Contact information:* louise.antony at gmail.com This is my personal email account.
