Sustainability Grants Available from American University

Just received an e-mail about the new AU Sustainability Fund from the Office of Sustainability:

Students, faculty, staff, alumni, and even neighbors can apply for grants between $500 and $1,500 to support sustainability research and/or implementation on campus.

The deadline is October 15th, so coming up quickly, but the application is fairly straightforward and short. This would be a great opportunity for grad students looking to support their thesis or SRP, undergrads with sustainability research or project ideas, or anyone with an idea to make AU a more sustainable campus.

Here is a link to the application: http://www.american.edu/loader.cfm?csModule=security/getfile&pageid=3028191. Again, proposals need to be emailed to sustainability@american.edu by October 15th. A panel consisting of students, faculty, and staff will make the final award decisions shortly thereafter.
