Results: The proposal must identify the expected results, which usually
take the form of further scholarship, course revisions, curricular proposals,
or policy recommendations. 3. Track record. R&D considers the applicants' previous history of grant applications should indicate the ability to accomplish what was promised, to use awarded funds prudently, and to file final reports as required in a timely fashion. How are study groups supported?: R&D provides expenses for the group's activities including the purchase of books. A search and, when appropriate, application for external funding is the required first step in the process. To begin your search, you may want to consult www.fdncenter.org (The Foundation Center) and the Office of Corporate and Foundation Relations for assistance. Some or all members of the group may be eligible for stipends. [This funding level reflects the College's expectation that curricular refinement of this order be a routine part of departmental activity throughout the year. Stipends for faculty are awarded where thorough going reforms are proposed which demand extensive cooperative work, promising a major impact on teaching, scholarship, and institutional visibility.] How are other college committees involved in the funding decision?: The appropriate committees or departments may be consulted in understanding the value and relevance to the college of a proposed project.
