5 years?

This article states the award was given only for 5 years and only to males. this link: https://alumni.stanford.edu/get/page/volunteering/lyman/ shows the Lyman award is still being given and the most recent 2018 recipient is a woman. or have I misunderstood?

Ok, seems this is a different award with the same name, offered by a different institution. Maybe this article should be renamed, or combined in some way to avoid confusion to anyone else? Ray3055 (talk) 00:49, 1 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I've added a bit more to the article to make it clearer it's two separate awards. Kj cheetham (talk) 10:53, 8 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
