The subcommittee recommends that the Woodrow Wilson Award for the best published scholarly article on American Presbyterian or Reformed history not be presented this year.

There were no submissions this year for the Patricia Burrus Spaulding Award for the best published scholarly article on an American Presbyterian or Reformed woman or women.

The Makemie Award is named for the Rev.
