Iris N. Spencer Poetry Awards
The Iris N. Spencer Poetry Awards are three awards administered by the West Chester University Poetry Center and are given annually during the West Chester University Poetry Conference "to recognize the important role of arts and letters in American life."〔http://www.wcupa.edu/_ACADEMICS/SCH_CAS/POETRY/Iris_N_Spencer_Poetry_Awards/〕 The Iris N. Spencer Poetry Awards were named by Kean W. Spencer, who provided the initial endowment, after his mother.

In 2005, the creation of the Iris N. Spencer Poetry Awards was announced at the WCU Poetry Conference.〔David Yezzi. "(A Summer Home for Verse )." ''The New York Sun''. June 8, 2005.〕 Kean W. Spencer provided the initial endowment of $250,000.〔"(Poetry is finding fans - even cash )." ''Philadelphia Inquirer''.
