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

特别项目：CRA-W FCRC“超级导师”研修班差旅支持：这项资助旨在为FCRC '99赞助“超级指导”研讨会，该研讨会扩大了以前（主要是初级和学术）指导研讨会的目标受众，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（终身职位后）妇女。所要求的支助用于参加者和发言者的旅费补助金，以及支助讲习班的主要社交活动。过去的经验表明，旅行补助金对许多否则无法参加的妇女至关重要。根据过去参加计算机研究协会举办的类似讲习班的妇女的评论，预计这次讲习班将成为参与者生活中积极和重要变化的催化剂。

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.
