| Raval Prize in Women's Studies and the Humanities |
| Established by her family and friends in memory of Shilpa Raval (1969-2004), the prize is awarded annually to a junior or senior whose interdisciplinary work, like Shilpa's lively and innovative scholarship on gender and sexuality in the ancient world, connects women's studies with study in an area of the humanities, languages or literature. As an undergraduate at Drew, Shilpa studied English, classics and women's studies, receiving her B.A. in 1991. She subsequently received a Ph.D. in classics from Brown University and was an assistant professor of Classics at Yale, where she also directed the Yale Women Faculty Forum. |
