Funding

Eligibility

The Committee on Lectures has the following criteria for funding:

  • Requests for funding need to come from a registered student organization.
  • Students must be included in the planning and presentation of the event.
  • The event being planned must be free and open to the public.
  • The event being planned must take place while classes are in session during the fall or spring semester. The committee does not fund summer programming. Events are not held during Finals Week, and events scheduled during Dead Week require special approval.
  • Student organizations may request funding for only one speaker per academic year, except in extenuating circumstances.
  • The committee does not fund speakers who have made a public presentation on campus within the last three years, except under special circumstances. Contact the director if there is a question about a speaker's previous campus visit(s).
