From the Provost

2006–2007 Provost's Incentive Grants
Applications are now being accepted for Provost's Incentive Grants for academic year 2006–2007. Awards of up to $1,000 are available to tenured and tenure-track faculty members to assist with travel, purchase of materials, conference fees, and other support for scholarly, research, and creative activities.

Preference will be given to those projects that provide a definite benefit to the grant recipient's professional development and will result in refereed publications, juried exhibits, invitational solo showings, and/or presentations at professional conferences. A selection committee of faculty from the four schools will review all proposals.

Applications must be submitted by 4:00 p.m. Thursday, February 8. Research, scholarship, and creative activities should be conducted from March 15, 2007, to March 15, 2008. Application instructions can be obtained from the Academic Affairs Office, Cleveland Hall 519, or the Academic Affairs Web site, www.buffalostate.edu/academicaffairs. Please call Janet Ramsey, ext. 5906, with questions.
