The Allen and Joan Bildner Endowment for Human and Inter-group Relations
promotes building a culture at Dartmouth in which human and inter-group
relationships are respected, studied and valued. The Endowment will provide
support this year to programs and projects that facilitate and promote
inter-group understanding. Through this funding the endowment works to reduce
bigotry and discrimination, and to build an environment of mutual understanding
and respect at Dartmouth.
Past awards have ranged from a few hundred dollars for single events to over
$10,000 for major conferences and performance series. We look forward to
proposals from faculty (Arts & Sciences, Thayer, Tuck, and Dartmouth
Medical School), Dartmouth undergraduates, and Dartmouth administrators.
Proposals are welcome from both individuals and organizations. Be creative and
ambitious - the only requirement is that the proposal furthers the purpose of
the Bildner Endowment.
Application Process
All applicants must complete the application cover sheet, a single paragraph
project summary, a proposal of no more than five pages, and an anticipated
budget. The application should explain the purpose of the project and how it
furthers the goals of the Bildner Endowment. All funding has been awarded for
2007/2008. For proposals for the 2008/2009 academic year, please follow the
guidelines below.
Proposal Guidelines
Successful proposals will demonstrate the project's ability to help build a
culture where inter-group differences are respected, studied and valued. Past
proposals have included campus-wide efforts that bring together diverse groups
for discussion or developing joint programs, campus-wide workshops and
conferences, the development and revision of Dartmouth courses, and programs to
increase faculty, administrative and staff responsiveness to an increasingly
diverse campus community. Proposals should clearly state their goals and how
they will help build a culture of diversity, respect and understanding on the
Dartmouth campus.
Detailed guidelines and applications are available to download here as
either a Word document
or PDF.
