Private donors interested in how government is involved in our lives provide funding for the Center. The 2003-03 CSGI Academic Year Grant Recipients have been announced.

Proposal Guidelines:

Eligible proposals must be directly relate to the limits of government! Last year proposals funded came from various LAS disciplines (including the arts), GSPA and the College of Business. The single most important criterion is that there is a clear connection to what the limits of government should be in our lives. CSGI funds cost of research and some summer stipends to work on the projects. In some cases, costs of undergraduate and /or graduate assistantships may also be funded. Each project should have a well thought out budget. Benefits will be deducted from the stipend amount.

Format: The proposal should include following sections in no more than 8-10 pages:
