Equal Opportunity Planning Committee funding available for projects that create and support a climate of equity

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — The Equal Opportunity Planning Committee (EOPC) invites Penn State faculty and staff to submit proposals for EOPC funding to support the University’s diversity, inclusion and equity efforts and advance the University’s strategic plan (see “fostering and embracing a diverse world”) with investments in programs and ideas.

Funding from EOPC is intended to provide seed money for innovative pilot programs and existing initiatives that create and support a climate of equity throughout Penn State.

The deadline to submit proposals for summer 2019 programs is Dec. 17, 2018, and for the 2019-20 academic year, Jan. 22, 2019.

The Office of Educational Equity will review proposal drafts to provide feedback in advance of submission deadlines as time and capacity permits.
