For the past several years anyone who gets a scholarship has to agree to
the release of their user name in their acceptance of the award.

Hi,
Long back when I asked for list of scholarship awardees, with their
usernames, someone answered saying that the usernames of scholarship
awardees can’t be disclosed. How come they have been disclosed now?
Regards,
Pavanaja
