Submit proposals that include:
- A detailed description of the event or activity
- A rationale for how this will build community on or across campuses
- A list of students involved (or the number of students that may ultimately participate)
- A detailed budget
While we wish to encourage projects with a broad scope, we are also willing to fund proposals that focus on specific constituencies as long as they cut across existing departmental and programmatic lines. We plan to fund as many proposals as possible, no matter how big or small. We will normally make up to $3000 available for such initiatives, but two-year initiatives may request up to $5000. We welcome proposals from independent groups of students, from our officially sponsored associations, and from unsponsored associations.
Proposals for the next round will be due by May 15 and we will release funds as early as September 2008. Please send your proposal as an email with attached Word or PDF document to Penny Warren, Assistant Dean of Student Life and Multicultural Affairs, at p-warren@northwestern.edu.
