Special Project: Travel Support for CRA-W FCRC Super-Mentoring Workshop, Atlanta, Georgia

EIA-9820471计算研究协会伯曼、弗朗西娜·阿斯莱姆、威廉姆斯特别项目：为CRA-W FCRC``超级指导‘讲习班提供差旅支持：亚特兰大GA这笔赠款旨在为FCRC’99赞助‘超级指导’讲习班，该讲习班将以前的(主要是初级和学术的)辅导讲习班的目标受众扩大到包括在国家实验室和工业部门从事研究工作的妇女，以及可能开始处理进一步晋升障碍的高级(任期后)妇女。所要求的支助是与会者和发言者的旅费补助金，以及对初级讲习班社交活动的支助。过去的经验表明，旅费补助金对许多妇女来说至关重要，否则她们就不能参加。根据过去参加过计算研究协会组织的类似研讨会的妇女的评论，预计这次研讨会将成为参与者生活中积极和重要的改变的催化剂。

EIA-9820471Computing Research AssociationBerman, FrancineAspray, WilliamSpecial Project: Travel Support for the CRA-W FCRC ``Super-Mentoring" Workshop: Atlanta GA This grant aims at sponsoring ``super-mentoring'' workshop for FCRC '99 which expands the previous (primarily junior and academic) mentoring workshop target audience to include women involved in research careers at national laboratories and within the industrial sector, as well as senior (post-tenure) women who may be beginning to deal with impediments to further promotion. The requested support is for travel grants for participants and speakers, and support for the primary workshop social event. Past experience has shown that the travel grants are critical for many women who could not have attended otherwise. Based on the comments from women who have attended similar workshops organized by the Computing Research Association in the past, it is expected that this workshop will serve as a catalyst for positive and important changes in participant's lives.
