The College of William and Mary is proposing a host of activities to advance women in academic STEM at their own institution as well as two nearby institutions, Richard Bland College and Thomas Nelson Community College. The project has three primary goals and a variety of initiatives to accomplish their goals. The main goal involves career development and mentoring. Initiatives surrounding this goal include an ambitious slate of workshops to promote scholarly writing and professional development. Also a leadership forum and a visiting female scientist program will be initiated. Organic mentoring will be encouraged through one-day annual retreats for all STEM female faculty across the three campuses. The project also includes a variety of research grant opportunities for the STEM women across the campuses. The second goal of the proposal combines efforts to evaluate the effectiveness of the programming described above with research based in the social science literature surrounding the reduction of implicit gender bias. The third goal of the proposal is to increase inter-institutional collaborations among the three participating institutions. INTELLECTUAL MERITThis proposal is well written and developed. The initiatives focused on promoting the research agendas of the STEM women are particularly strong and well suited to the needs of less research-intensive institutions. The social science research component of the proposal is very well grounded in the literature and represents a robust, real-life test of possible mechanisms to change implicit bias. The PIs have taken some of the strongest and most successful ADVANCE programming and adapted it appropriately to their context. BROADER IMPACTSThe collaborative nature of the programming presents a nice opportunity for broader impacts by including STEM faculty at two primarily undergraduate institutions and a community college. The three campuses have over 100 STEM, women, full-time faculty. The social science research is positioned to contribute importantly to the scientific literature on the reduction of implicit bias. The success of these programs, combined with empirical support for a reduction in implicit bias can lead to a replicable model among similar institutions.

威廉与玛丽学院（College of William and Mary）正在提议开展一系列活动，以促进该校以及附近的两所学院——理查德·布兰德学院（Richard Bland College）和托马斯·纳尔逊社区学院（Thomas Nelson Community College）——的女性在STEM学术领域的发展。该项目有三个主要目标，以及实现这些目标的各种计划。主要目标包括职业发展和指导。围绕这一目标的举措包括一系列雄心勃勃的研讨会，以促进学术写作和专业发展。此外，还将启动领导论坛和访问女科学家计划。通过为三个校区的所有STEM女教师提供为期一天的年度务虚会，将鼓励有机指导。该项目还包括为各个校园的STEM女性提供各种研究资助机会。该提案的第二个目标是将评估上述规划的有效性的努力与基于社会科学文献的关于减少隐性性别偏见的研究结合起来。该提案的第三个目标是加强三个参与机构之间的机构间合作。这个建议写得很好，也很完善。专注于促进STEM女性研究议程的倡议特别强大，非常适合研究密集型机构的需求。该提案的社会科学研究部分在文献中有很好的基础，代表了对改变内隐偏见的可能机制的强大的、现实的测试。pi采用了一些最强大和最成功的ADVANCE编程，并将其适当地适应其环境。更广泛的影响通过包括两所主要本科院校和一所社区学院的STEM教师，该项目的合作性质为产生更广泛的影响提供了一个很好的机会。这三个校区有超过100名STEM女性全职教师。社会科学研究对减少内隐偏见的科学文献有重要的贡献。这些项目的成功，加上对减少隐性偏见的实证支持，可以在类似机构中形成可复制的模式。
