Fuller Fund

Information on the Fuller Fund

================================================
Attached are two lists regarding the eligible countries for the Fuller fund.

The first is a general list of areas sufficient to identify eligible candidates.
The second is a more specific list of countries, divided by geographical
sections and alphabetized within each section. This list has been extracted from
very recent (1995) versions of the world atlas. Frequent updates may be
necessary, but the listed countries keep in mind the original intent of the
fund. If there are any problems with the categories or specific countries,
send me an e-mail message at gpr@hep.anl.gov and the committee can discuss
potential changes.

For the record, the committee voted at the Reno meeting to pre-approve the
list of specific countries that the subcommittee (Menard and Ramsey)
constructed, provided the general criteria agreed upon was kept in tact.
