The grant program鈥檚 new funding cycle opened today. Proposals for summer 2025 grants are due on Jan. 17, and proposals for 2025鈥�26 academic year grants are due on Feb. 14.
Grant proposals should address at least one of the campus鈥檚 five diversity, equity and inclusion goals, which focus on developing employee skills; addressing inequities in student achievement outcomes; building community on campus; seeking greater equity in employee recruitment outcomes; and preparing students for a diverse democracy.
鈥淧roposals that emphasize collaboration and build on existing strengths tend to be most successful in their impact and sustainability,鈥� said Alison Hanson, the grant program鈥檚 new program and assessment manager. 鈥淚 am excited to support applicants with thinking creatively and rigorously about their goals and assessment plans.鈥�
According to Hanson, applicants submitting proposals for the new grant funding cycle are encouraged to focus on the campus鈥檚 fifth diversity, equity and inclusion goal, which centers on how 精品SM在线影片 is preparing students to participate in a diverse democracy.
Hanson said grant applicants may submit proposals in collaboration across units and must have the support of their unit leads.

Following a collaborative peer-review process, grant recipients for new and continuing projects will receive notifications about their awards in March and April, Hanson said.
Sponsored by the Office of the Senior Vice Chancellor for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, the grant program is a seed funding initiative designed to support new and existing efforts that operationalize and enhance academic and administrative units鈥� capacity to advance diversity, equity and inclusion at 精品SM在线影片.
