Technology fee funds should:
1) Support students in meeting educational goals of their academic or co-curricular programs.
Benefit students in innovative or significant ways. In this context, significance may be understood to imply either impact on a large number of students or a deeper impact on a smaller number of students.
- Proposals will be scored using the designated scoring rubric.
- Be spent by the end of the awarded fiscal year unless other arrangements have been made during the award process. A status report is required at the end of the fiscal year and the complete report due after the project is finished, if multi-year. A link to the status report document will be included on the Tech Fee website and in the award acceptance letter.
2) Projects may submit requests for continued funding in subsequent years, but will not receive priority in the review process. Subsequent year proposals must include a measurable assessment of the earlier year’s results.
3) Proposals submitted by a student or student organization must identify a staff or faculty sponsor willing to accept responsibility for the appropriate use of the funding and fulfilling all reporting requirements.
4) Any individual who has not completed reporting requirements for past awards is not eligible for funding until the reporting is complete.
5) Ongoing operational costs (e.g., annual maintenance or renewal fees) must be paid from other sources.
