The Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) proposes to fund student attendance at the 2009 Richard Tapia Celebration of Diversity in Computing Conference that will be held April 1-4 in Portland, Oregon. The Tapia conference is unique in that it focuses on underrepresented minorities in Computer Science. Students will have access to the many researchers and technical presentations at the conference. In addition, they can present their own work in a poster session and at a PhD Consortium, giving them the opportunity to get feedback from discipline specialists. The Tapia Conference provides a supportive environment for students, allowing them to engage in intellectual discourse with a range of researchers and to meet peers from other institutions. The students will be able to build their personal networks and form professional relationships. This award will also fund travel support for some faculty at MSIs, giving them the opportunity to accompany their student mentees and make important technical contacts for themselves.

计算机协会（ACM）建议资助学生参加将于4月1日至4日在俄勒冈州波特兰举行的2009年理查德·塔皮亚计算机多样性庆祝大会。塔皮亚会议的独特之处在于它专注于计算机科学中代表性不足的少数民族。学生将有机会在会议上接触到许多研究人员和技术演示。此外，他们可以在海报会议和博士联盟中展示自己的工作，让他们有机会从学科专家那里获得反馈。塔皮亚会议为学生提供了一个支持性的环境，使他们能够与一系列研究人员进行知识交流，并与其他机构的同行会面。学生将能够建立自己的个人网络，并形成专业关系。该奖项还将为MSI的一些教师提供旅行支持，让他们有机会陪伴学生学员并为自己建立重要的技术联系。
