Student Organization Funding Application Deadline THIS FRIDAY
The Memphis Law Office of Diversity & Inclusion Program Funding Application is now open! Applications may be submitted at any time but there is a priority application deadline of Friday, September 9th at 5pm.
Please submit one application for EACH event for which you are requesting funding. Cosponsored programs are highly encouraged—please submit only ONE Office of Diversity Program Funding Application for each program or event.
The Diversity Office encourages applications for programs of all types, and is particularly interested in promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion, through funding student organization sponsored events and opportunities that enrich our academic community. PLEASE NOTE THAT THERE ARE THREE SEPARATE CATEGORIES FOR FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES THIS YEAR:
Diversity Week Funding—for programing proposals for organization events during Diversity Week (January 30th through February 2nd).
Professional Development Funding—for programming that majorly promotes diverse and first-generation student networking opportunities and mentored professional relationships. Priority given to projects and programming that connect first generation and diverse students with professionals.
General Funding—for programming and organizations that promote diversity, equity, and inclusion in the legal field and/or improve diverse student outcomes and access to the legal field. Priority given to projects that encourage collaboration between student organizations.
For more information, contact Amber Campbell at mcmpbl13@memphis.edu.
PLEASE NOTE: If your funding application is approved, ALL PROGRAM FUNDING IS ON A REIMBURSEMENT BASIS due to University requirements. Receipts and proof of payment must be submitted to receive reimbursement.
