RECOMMENDATIONS
We recommend that NASA convene,
in partnership with a national association or
organization of scientists and engineers, an
initial conference of educators and scientists
to publicize the program and to inform
pertinent organizations and individuals about
its purposes and strategies. During this first
conference, participants would discuss draft
guidelines for implementing the program.
Following the development of program
guidelines, to be specified in an REP, a second
meeting should be convened for institutions
and organizations that are prospective
candidates for a National Scholars consortia
and other interested participants. The purpose
of this meeting would be to explain the
requirements for preparing a proposal for
funding to implement a consortium.
There should be a pilot phase for the
program, during which time three consortiums
would be established. These would not be
experimental. We are confident that our
knowledge base is adequate to assure a high
likelihood of success for these initial
consortiums. However, information obtained
from the experience of their first two years
would indicate whether the activities are
operating as planned and permit refinement of
the guidelines for implementation of
subsequent consortiums. Over the next three
years other consortiums would be established
and the full program implemented.
