FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES FOR CONVENTION TRAVELIt can be difficult to travel in college, especially when money is limited. Here are a few ideas that might help you as you contemplate traveling to the Convention in Washington D.C. 1) Ask your professors. Sometimes departments have some funds built into their budgets to help students attend conferences. 2) Contact the Student Affairs Department at your university. Sometimes the Student Affairs Department (or a similar department) at your college has funds available for student conference attendance. 3) Paper Submissions/Leadership Program. Read up on the opportunities available for Pi Gamma Mu students. A few students will have their papers selected for presentation, and there are some funding opportunities through the Student Leadership Program. For more information, please contact the international office. 4) Ask your Pi Gamma Mu chapter sponsor. Chapters that will be in attendance at the Convention sometimes have funds available for students. Each chapter is building a reserve of convention funding at Pi Gamma Mu headquarters. It grows every time a chapter sends applications for membership and initiation fees. The Convention Reserve Fund was established by action of the international Board of Trustees to encourage more chapters to participate in convention activities. Each chapter that sends a delegation to the Convention will receive funding. We hope to see you in Washington DC in November!
