Departments, faculty, or student groups who are seeking support for an event from the Humanities Institute should complete as much of this simple form as possible and send to Liz Kicak. Completing this form does not guarantee support from HI. After submitting the form, we'll schedule a short meeting virtually or in person to determine what resources are available, if there are scheduling conflicts, and how recently your home department has received support from HI in the past. While we would love to support all events, fund purposes and allowable expenses have to be considered.
