Subject: Action needed: Proposal to change the name of the Diversity Scholarship

Everyone,

We need to make some decisions about the diversity scholarship, if we are to begin promoting it in good time. This is the first of three proposals to consider.

Proposal 1:
Change the name from Diversity Scholarship to Diversity Fund.

Reason:
A scholarship is usually associated with education. In this case we are not offering assistance to further someone's education, we're offering assistance to enable more people to participate and bring their knowledge/expertise. Fund is a more accurate reflection of this.

* If you support this proposal, please reply to this email with a +1 at the top.
* If you do not support this proposal, please reply to this email with a
-1 at the top.
* If you do not feel strongly about this proposal, or do not want to participate, please reply to this email with a 0 at the top.

You do not have to respond at all, but it really helps if you do. If you would prefer to respond privately, you can send your response to me directly (to lw@tetralogical.com).

Please respond before the end of the day on Friday 8th February 2019.


Thank you.

Léonie.
