James William Rivers Prize | |
||
The Center for Louisiana Studies of the University of Louisiana at Lafayette awards the James William Rivers Prize annually. |
||||||
The James William Rivers Prize in Louisiana Studies was established to honor persons who have contributed or rendered, recently or over the course of their careers, outstanding scholarly study, work, or teaching about the culture, history, art, architecture, crafts, flora, fauna, music, literature, law, performing arts, or geography of Louisiana or about its people. The Rivers Prize, consisting of a cash award and other acknowledgments, was established with private funds donated in memory of Mr. Rivers, a New Orleans architect and graduate of USL (now UL-Lafayette), who died in 1991. |
