- HOW: You will be supported throughout the process by faculty and librarian mentors, a student consultant, and your peers, who you’ll meet with several times in the new year.
- WHEN: The Call for Proposals opens October 20 and closes November 15. Selected proposals will be announced December 13. Projects will begin in C Term and continue through the academic year.
