Grant Center: Ruth Butler Grants
APPLICATION PROCEDURES
These grants are given in honor of the late Professor Ruth Butler
of the Mathematics Department.
Purpose:
Grants are to be awarded to promote professional or artistic development,
or activities that are appropriate to furthering the goals of Fitchburg
State College.
Eligibility:
Grants normally may be awarded to full-time members of the faculty,
administration, and student body of Fitchburg State College. If
in any one year such grants use less than the funds available, part-time
members of the three groups may be considered as grantees. No Ruth Butler
Grants Committee members may apply for the grants during
the period of their tenure.
Grants Committee:
The Ruth Butler Grants Committee will consist of four
faculty members, one student chosen from the Leadership Academy,
and one member of the administration. The Committee quorum will
consist of the representatives of the administration and students
and at least two faculty members.
Application:
Grant applicants must submit a completed application form together
with a resume or curriculum vita. Grant applications may be obtained
from the Grant Center, Conlon Building, Room 220 by calling extension
3368 or through the Grant Center's web site at http://www.fsc.edu/grantctr/.
Applications are due November 3, 2008 by 4:00 PM. Applications
are solicited from full-time faculty, and from all undergraduate
students (individuals or teams) in September. There is a preference
for proposals involving students as partners in the scholarship/creative
activity.
Grant Awards:
Grants will be awarded late in December of the academic year.
Grantee's Responsibility:
Grantees will be responsible for a final report on their
work to the college community submitted to the Grant Center.
They are expected to submit the reports to the Fitchburg State College Grant Center
in a timely fashion. Funds for all grants must be expended by the end of the following academic year, or written requests for extensions must
be submitted to the committee.
