The Inclusiveness Initiatives Fund
Call for Proposals from Students, Faculty, and Staff
for events taking place in the spring and fall of 2010
We Fund the Change You Want to See
All members of the community are invited to submit proposals for funding from the Inclusiveness Initiatives Fund. The report of the Presidential Commission on Diverse Community (September 2005) recommended that such a fund be established to generate and support a variety of initiatives designed to enhance “the role diversity plays in our work environment, our community, and especially in the curricular and co-curricular dimensions of our students’ education.” We encourage you to read (or reread) the Report of the Commission.
Process:
Proposals will be reviewed once each semester by the Multi-Cultural Community and College Life Committee. Students, staff, and faculty may submit proposals. We encourage proposals that emerge from or will work across multiple perspectives. While proposals are customarily for projects or events to take place the following semester or academic year, we also invite proposals with multi-year timelines. The deadline for proposals for projects taking place next spring is November 3, 2009 and March 2, 2010 for projects taking place in the fall of 2010.
Typical proposals have received funding between $300 and $3,000. Projects that were funded last year are available for viewing.
We will also consider, on a rolling basis, proposals that request support for smaller-scale or short-range projects. Successful rolling proposals rarely have received more than $500. Successful rolling proposals are available for viewing.
