Event Proposals

Proposal Guidelines

Proposals should include the following:

  • Event title
  • Proposed date, time, location
  • Potential or confirmed participants (names and institutional affiliations)
  • Brief description of the content and thematic relevance of the event (400 word limit). All events must have an academic or cultural significance. CLAS does not support social events.
  • Itemized project budget with (whenever available) other funding sources secured or sought
  • Please specify the amount of funding requested or, if applicable, the type of administrative help that is needed (e.g., publicity, logistical arrangements, accounting).

Please submit your proposal as early as possible, but no later than two weeks prior to the date of your event. Please keep in mind that all activities should be free and open to the public.

Individual travel by UChicago faculty and students will not be considered for funding. All initiatives that receive funding or other forms of support must include the name and/or logo of CLAS on all printed and digital publicity.

Submit your proposal to Claudia Brittenham, Director of CLAS.
