| The
Fund |
| The
President’s Research and Creative Activities Fund is established
annually from monies received from the General Operating Fund, Endowment
Funds, and external foundations and agencies (e.g., SSHRC, Crake
Foundation). It may also include lapsed internal and external research
funds, if available. |

| Regulatory
Framework |
The
President’s Research and Creative Activities Fund is governed
by the policies and procedures outlined in the Internal
Research Grants policy (Policy# 5200.), which should
be reviewed before applying to this fund.
In
particular, applicants are directed to section 3.3 of that document,
which deals with eligible expenses. Please note that conference
travel is normally funded only by the Marjorie Young Bell Fund,
Category B. |
