RSCA 2024-25 funding is open to all members of Unit 3 - Faculty, Librarians, Coaches, and Counselors.

Proposals submitted to this program must follow the 2024-25 RSCA Faculty Mini-Grant Guidelines available at the link provided below and will be reviewed by the Council for Graduate and Faculty Scholarship (Research Council), an elected committee consisting of a representative from each College.
