I will have to go look up these other guys to see what they’re doing. Should be feel good research.

Are the qualifications for this award to have non-anglo names?

Congrats to these guys though.

In 2009, Williams donated $2 million to the University of Maryland to help create the Madieu Williams Center for Global Health Initiatives.”

———————

His salary in 2009 was $4.7 million BEFORE taxes. He then donated $2 million? Good for him. Give him the award.
