What are the criteria?  At least five years of outstanding mentoring to a 
significant number of persons who might not otherwise have considered or had 
access to opportunities in STEM (including persons with disabilities, women and 
minorities) who are either:
* Students at the K-12, undergraduate, or graduate education level, or
* Early career scientists, mathematicians or engineers who have completed their 
degree in the past three years.

What is required?  A description and documentation of the mentoring methods and 
procedures of the individual or organizational nominee, and letters supporting
