+1. Note that, as Jon said, "all scholarship recipients agree to produce a
public report afterwards summarising the key things they have taken from
the event". If it is of any length, sure such a report could only be
notionally anonymous. As the writer of such a report last year, I'm not
sure how I could have structured it to avoid making the authorship clear to
those who cared. So in terms of after-the-fact privacy, we should be up
front about that requirement, and if the default procedure isn't, we should
institute steps to make it so.

Just my 2c,
Harry
