The Office of Student Affairs is excited to announce the new Intellectual Life Funding Application.
The application is made available for all student groups interested in receiving funding for academic programming for the 2016-17 school year. Funding for these programs is given out once a year through a competitive application system with funding decisions made by the Student Intellectual Life Committee (comprised of faculty, administrators and students). The application deadline is Friday, March 4, 2016.
Please note that the committee has been renamed this year and no longer is called the Symposia Funding Committee. We have determined that many full-day symposia do not serve the needs of the students and the rest of the Law School community particularly well. This year the committee wants to open up the application to a broader variety of programs including shorter academic panels, brown bag lunch series, film showings, workshops, roundtables and other kinds of events that might appeal to students and serve the needs of our Law School community. The most innovative programming will likely get the most positive reaction from the funding committee. Applications that seek funding for symposia will be accepted, however.
