The Campus Activities Board (CAB) is the programming board that allocates an earmarked portion of Student Activity Fees for social, cultural, educational, and community service programs. CAB is beginning the process of identifying programs for fall 2015. If your department is planning a program for students and believes that CAB may be interested in co-sponsoring the event, information about the Community Proposal submission process can be found on the CSI Website.  The application is Web-based and can be found on the CSI Campus Connection.

Community Proposals for fall 2015 are due to CAB by Friday, May 15, 2015 at 11:45pm. Submit a proposal online. Please print the form prior to submitting the document; this option is available to you on the submission page (last page of the form).

CAB has funded numerous campus programs including “Feminists Are Funny” with the Women’s Center, an International Film Series with the Center for International Service; the Spring Festival with the School of Education and Majors and Minors Week with the Center for Advising and Academic Success, as well as programs to strengthen community and promote pride in CSI, including funding refreshments for the CSI Leadership Conference, and funding a portion of the CSI Freshmen Convocation and Honors Convocation.

CAB sets aside $17,500.00 per semester for community proposal funding. Therefore, CAB will not approve funds in an amount more than $3,000 for any specific proposal.  In addition, an individual department may submit as many events as they choose, but CAB will only fund one event per department. CAB will review the fall 2015 proposals that are received by the May 15 deadline at a summer meeting. Please note that since CAB funding requests must be approved by Student Government and the CSI Association, approvals may not be finalized until late August. Please keep this in mind when submitting requests for August/September events.

Thank you in advance for helping make CSI a place where things happen. We look forward to receiving your program ideas. If you have questions about the proposal process, or need assistance with your application, please contact Debi Kee at 718.982.3268 or email debi.kee@csi.cuny.edu.
