Apply for diversity program funding; grant award increased to $5,000

The Chief Diversity Office recently announced an expansion of Clemson’s Diversity Incentive Grant Fund. Renamed the Diversity and Inclusive Excellence Incentive Grant Fund, a new emphasis has been included in the criteria for grant awards. An additional criterion has been created which places greater emphasis and focus on activities and programs that demonstrate potential to significantly enhance the campus climate. Also, the maximum amount of support available for grant awards has been increased from $3,500 to $5,000 for deserving projects.  For the first time, multiple year awards will be available for project activities that are exceptionally successful and evidence broad impact.

Please contact Leslie Doss, ldoss@clemson.edu for the guidelines for proposals for the fall or spring of the academic year 2014 – 2015. Proposals for grant funds are due to the Chief Diversity Office on or before Friday, June 20, 2014 by 4:30 pm.
