Edelman Award Name Adjustment

  • 1.  Edelman Award Name Adjustment

    I strongly oppose the proposed name change. The Edelman Award is well established and much respected within the OR/MS community. I disagree that a 'name adjustment' is needed for recognition outside INFORMS. If necessary, I suggest introducing a new 'advanced analytics' award with or without OR/MS in the name.
