Please also include relevant deadlines connected to preparing for any major events. Developing this timeline is an opportunity to look at a project from a high-level perspective: Are you developing three days of workshops or spreading workshops out over three months? Are you avoiding major holidays or other conflicts? Are you giving yourself enough time to prepare? You may submit this timeline in whatever format you find most helpful for your project.

A clear explanation of the author’s relationship to the individual student or student group; 2. Major goals, outcomes, and any past activities; 3. The community identified-need being met by the individual student or student group; and 4. The author’s contact information. You may include the letter below or ask the author to directly email Daniela at daniela.sanchez@tufts.edu. Your application will not be reviewed until we have received the letter.
