Let your imagination go wild. The committee will review any reasonable requests for group FUN, up to $200 per application. That means ballet performances, day trips, amusement parks, plays, concerts, bowling, movies, mini golf, sporting events, museums, tours, cultural events… the possibilities are endless. Please remember that the committee is only funds weekend events and only funds events that take place during the regular academic year (not during finals or over breaks). The committee also does not fund personal salon related activities (e.g. manicures, hair styling, etc.)
Don't let that stop you from applying. Plug a tentative date into the application. Then, in the section "additional comments," please let us know the date is tentative and you do at least have some alternate date or a tentative week in mind. We do ask that for FUN to be approved, you narrow down your time frame to a 2-3 specific dates (e.g. If you are trying to get tickets to a performance or game and are not sure which date you'll end up with). Once you have the specific date, or if you need to change the date that you originally were approved for, you should notify Dean Kevin Piskadlo so that she knows when to expect your receipts.
We ask that applications be submitted at least 3 weeks prior to your FUN event so that we can review applications. The FUN Fund Committee will typically meet twice a month to review applications. Once the committee has met, you should receive and email with their decision within 2-3 business days.
In the spring 2024 semester, the Committee is scheduled to meet on the following Friday mornings:
January 19
February 2 & 16
March 1 & 15
April 12 & 26
Right now, we are only accepting one application, up to $200, for each FUN activity, regardless how many students are involved.
No. The purpose of the FUN Fund is to promote participation and accessibility of non-alcohol related activities among students. Applications that include alcohol will not be approved and receipts that include alcohol in expenses cannot be reimbursed. If there is reason to believe that alcohol was consumed in conjunction with a FUN activity, the FUN Fund Grant will be revoked.
Be sure to save your receipts and submit a reimbursement form!
