INDIVIDUAL PAESMEM Nomination of Mr. Alonzo W. Ashley

提交的提名包是为了支持卓越科学、数学和工程指导总统奖（PAESMEM），以表彰杰出的指导工作或计划，这些指导工作或计划增强了历史上未被充分代表的科学、数学和工程群体的参与。被提名人Alonzo W. Ashley先生是斯坦福大学线性加速器（SLAC）的荣誉退休工作人员。他为未被充分代表的STEM少数民族本科生开发了SLAC夏季研究计划（现在称为科学本科生实验室实习（SULI）计划）。此外，他还负责SLAC在全国少数民族科学与工程研究生学位联盟（GEM）中的特许会员资格。阿什利先生开发的项目负责招募和留住少数族裔在SLAC攻读物理科学研究生学位——至少有10名非裔美国物理学博士，以及数十名硕士工程师、计算机科学家、数学家和环境科学家。阿什利还发起了许多合作伙伴关系来支持他的指导目标，包括全国黑人工程师协会和圣何塞技术博物馆之间的合作，以及SLAC和菲斯克、萨凡纳州立大学、潘恩学院和南方大学之间的合作（都是hbcu）。后来的合作关系是为HBCU的教师提供一个导师计划。

HRD 0527860The submitted nomination package is in support of a Presidential Award for Excellence in Science, Mathematics, and Engineering Mentoring (PAESMEM) to recognize outstanding mentoring efforts or programs that enhance the participation of historically underrepresented groups in science, mathematics, and engineering.The nominee, Mr. Alonzo W. Ashley, is an emeritus staff member of the Stanford University Linear Accelerator (SLAC). He developed the SLAC Summer Research Program for underrepresented minority undergraduates in STEM (now called the Science Undergraduate Laboratory Internship (SULI) program). In addition, he was responsible for SLAC's charter membership in the National Consortium for Graduate Degrees for Minorities in Science and Engineering (GEM). The programs that Mr. Ashley developed have been responsible for having recruited and retained minorities to graduate degrees in physical sciences at SLAC - at least ten African American Ph.D. physicists, and dozens of master's degree level engineers, computer scientists, mathematicians, and environmental scientists. Ashley has also initiated many partnerships in support of his mentoring objectives, including between the National Society of Black Engineers and the San Jose Tech Museum, and between SLAC and Fisk, Savannah State, Paine College, and Southern University (all HBCUs). The later partnership was developed to provide a mentor program for HBCU faculty.
