To be considered, a student or group of students must prepare and submit a written proposal including the following elements:

• A well-developed and detailed budget not to exceed one page.
• Letters of commitment or other documentation of approval/intent to participate from all parties and organizations involved in the project.
• Letters of recommendation from members of the Denison faculty and/or staff and other key individuals are recommended.

A draft proposal must be submitted electronically to Dr. Joyce Meredith in the President's Office at meredithj@denison.edu no later than November 17, 2008.
