DISCOVERY FUND
Explore how the Discovery Fund can be beneficial to all! We have many clubs on campus who have speakers or presentations. Perhaps there is a presenter or speaker who charges for their program that doesn’t necessarily fit into the club’s budget. This would be a prime opportunity to contact Jen Stuckey and ask about the funding of this special presenter who would bring knowledge, an engaging topic, a new experience plus question-and-answer opportunities. It could be a program that specific clubs would like to do, and make it open to all residents, and the costs associated with it would not be a concern. This is the time to look for other activities or events that fall within this realm and explore options and make some things happen.
Please don’t hesitate to call and inquire with Jen Stuckey, activities supervisor, at ext. 14509.
