?AN OPPORTUNITY TO GET MONEY TO DO COOL THINGS! ?This is passed along from the DOC president and the Director of OPO: ? To Faculty Members in the Arts and Sciences, I am very excited to let you know about a new opportunity for students who will be entering their Junior Year. Dartmouth has just finalized a partnership with the Stamps Family Charitable Foundation to offer enrichment funding for students to pursue an experiential learning opportunity. Here's a short description of the award: "Stamps Leadership Scholar Awards allow the most promising students an opportunity to design an experiential learning program to build on or respond to what theyıve learned through multiple experiences in their first and second years at Dartmouth. Stamps Leadership Scholars have access to an enrichment fund of up to $10,000 per academic year per student to engage in experiential learning opportunities that can be spread over multiple terms, both during on and off terms. Examples of ways the award funds can be used include pursuing: an entrepreneurial idea, a research project either on or off campus, leadership training, an internship, service learning, or other purposes at the discretion of the SFCF and Dartmouth College." As this is the first year of the awards, we are under a very tight timeline to notify students of this great opportunity and for them to complete an application. Do you know students who have an experiential project they would like to explore this coming year who would benefit from year-long funding? If so, please direct them to information about this award at: http://www.dartmouth.edu/~provost/. The application and additional materials must be submitted by July 2, 2014. I would be happy to answer any questions from potential applicants or you and your staff.
