At the NCA convention, Donofrio will receive her award at a special panel that honors the Golden Award winning essay and the essays ranked in the "laureate" group. Ph.D. student Timothy Barney is included in the "laureate" group of essays. At that panel, Donofrio will present her essay—it is scheduled for Saturday, November 17, from 11:00-12:15.
