Tri-College University is a bridge of cooperation that runs between Concordia College, Minnesota State University Moorhead and NDSU. In an effort to promote new collaborative initiatives, Tri-College University has announced the availability of one-time start-up grant funds for faculty, staff and students. Tri-College University has found that through sharing resources, a greater number of people can be positively impacted and efficiencies readily obtained. The program is intended to develop collaborative relationships between people in our campus community who share a common interest and vision.

“The grant program, now starting its third year, has provided positive outcomes to our campus and metro communities. The funds have allowed people to act on their vision and ideas by gathering like-minded people from Tri-College University partnering institutions and build on our strong education foundation,” said Tim Flakoll, Tri-College University provost.

Interested faculty, staff and students at each campus are encouraged to submit a grant application detailing their project, the need that it fills, level of collaboration and participation between campuses, expected outcomes and level of funding they are seeking. Grants awarded will range from $250 to $1,000. Availability and level of awards are subject to the availability of funds at Tri-College University. Matching funds are not required for eligibility.

An application is available at www.tri-college.org or by calling Sonia Mayo Hohnadel, Tri-College University communications coordinator, at 1-8170.
