First seeds of a fairer future. Stephanie became Steve to save her firm. Her gift to Balliol means women can thrive as themselves, Dorothy Zinberg says

Article Abstract:

Oxford's Balliol College has established the Oxford Institute for the Internet and Society, helped along by Stephanie Shirley, a philanthropic entrepreneur and alumnus of the college. The new school is designed to research the Internet's effects on society. One such effect, specifically, is the ability for women to remain gender-anonymous and conduct business fairly and equally.
