9507756 Condon In an effort to increase the number of women entering graduate school in CISE disciplines, the Computing Research Association (CRA) has been awarded a continuation of the Distributed Mentor Project (Award CDA-9302536) where 20-25 female students are matched with a number of female professors in CISE research areas each of the years 1996-1998, to participate in a summer of research at the mentor's institution. The students will most likely be computer science or computer engineering majors although this is not required. In addition, the pi's have been funded to conduct a longitudinal evaluation of the two projects over the years 1994-1998. The evaluation will measure how well the projects have met the goal on increasing the number of women in CISE disciplines entering graduate school. The most useful aspect of the mentoring/research will also be assessed on an annual basis in order to provide feedback for improving the remaining years of the project. The CRA is an association of U.S. and Canadian academic departments of Computer Science and Computer Engineering, and Industrial Laboratories engaging in basic computing research. The mission of CRA is to represent and inform the computing research community and to support and promote its interests. Dr. Weingarten is the Executive Director of CRA. Dr. Anne Condon, the academic leader of this project, is an Associate Professor of Computer Science at the University of Wisconsin. ***

小行星9507756 为了增加进入CISE学科研究生院的女性人数，计算机研究协会（CRA）被授予分布式导师项目的延续（CDA-9302536号奖），1996-1998年，每年有20-25名女学生与若干名女教授在社会科学和工业中心的研究领域配对，参加导师所在机构的夏季研究。 学生将最有可能是计算机科学或计算机工程专业，虽然这不是必需的。 此外，还为PI提供了资金，以便在1994-1998年期间对这两个项目进行纵向评估。 评估将衡量这些项目在多大程度上实现了增加CISE学科中进入研究生院的妇女人数的目标。 指导/研究的最有用的方面也将每年进行评估，以提供反馈意见，改善项目的剩余年份。 CRA是美国和加拿大计算机科学和计算机工程学术部门以及从事基础计算研究的工业实验室的协会。 CRA的使命是代表和通知计算研究社区，并支持和促进其利益。 Weingarten博士是CRA的执行董事。Anne Condon博士是该项目的学术带头人，是威斯康星州大学计算机科学副教授。 ***
