Funding
Few institutions can financially sponsor any speaker from the budget of one department or organization. However, by pulling together resources from a number of co-sponsors many campuses have found funding this kind of program surprisingly easy. These co-sponsors are also great at generating a wider, more diverse audience, a key aspect to culture change.
Here are a few suggestions for co-sponsors:
• Athletics (eligible for either $500 speaker grant
from the NCAA)
• Greek Life
• Residence Life
• Public Safety
• Women’s Studies
• Multicultural Affairs
• Teacher Education
• Sociology Department
• Women’s Affairs
• Vice President for Student Affairs
• Judicial Affairs
• Campus Programs
• Dean of Students
• Orientation
• Leadership Programs
• Wellness - Health Center
• Alcohol Education
• Provost or Academic Vice President
• Counseling Center
• Student Organizations
- o Feminist Organizations
o Amnesty International
o Pro-Choice Groups
o GLBT Alliances
o Fraternities and Sororities
As you begin looking at co-sponsorship please let us know if there is anything we can do to help. We have found that talking with a large variety of folks and asking for small amounts of money can be a successful approach. We are happy, and it is not uncommon, for us to help with any campus grant proposals or funding requests for campus visits.
Any NCAA active member institution or conference is eligible to apply for grants of $500 or $1000 drug-education or wellness programs, including sexual assault prevention. Applications are reviewed after the deadline dates, and are awarded on a first-come, first-served basis.
