Stetson University Library Research Prizes

The duPont-Ball Library offers two research prizes each year, the Evans C. Johnson Reseach Prize and the R. Neil Scott Research Prize.


The Evans C. Johnson Research Prize may be awarded each spring to a student whose documented research paper in EH 121, ENGL 101, or a First-Year Seminar from the previous calendar year shows thorough, effective, creative, and ethical uses of the library and research resources.

The monetary award is given by an anonymous donor in memory of Dr. Evans C. Johnson, Stetson University Professor of History 1953-1997. Dr. Johnson required students to illustrate effective use of research resources in papers for his courses, and this award is designed to reward such scholarship. In addition to the monetary award, the winner will receive an engraved plaque, funded by R. Neil Scott.


The R. Neil Scott Research Prize may be awarded each spring to a student whose documented research paper in EH 121, ENGL 101, or a First-Year Seminar from the previous calendar year shows thorough, effective, creative, and ethical uses of the library and research resources. The R. Neil Scott Prize will give preference to papers dealing with the general themes of business or economics.

The monetary award is given by Stetson alumnus and former Stetson librarian, R. Neil Scott, MBA,'82. In addition to the monetary award, the winner will receive an engraved plaque.


The competition for the 2009 prize (2008 papers) is now closed. Please watch for the announcement of the 2010 prize (2009 papers) in spring 2010.

The Prizes will be awarded at the Academic Honors Convocation, usually held in April each year. For more information, please see the documents in the column to the right.
