<p class="MsoNormal">With generous funding from the Vice President of Academic Affairs, we are pleased to begin accepting applications for the Faculty-Led Student Experiences fund for the fall 2023 semester. Fulltime faculty in Academic Affairs are eligible
to apply for funding up to $4,000 for activities that widen student experiences and viewpoints inside and outside the classroom. Funds must be used to directly support the students’ learning experience in a course being taught this semester, and cannot be
used to replace funding already awarded for events. Please see additional details and the funding criteria in the attached application, or on our website:
