Quite awhile ago I began in a frantic, yet well-thought out, search for funding from my University. I have encountered a lot of NO!'s, but have also gotten some "maybe's" that have kept me going. I am so happy to say that two of the searches have paid off! I mentioned them in previous posts but never wanted to get my hopes up until they were official. I still have one "maybe" out there that I will keep to myself though.
Both the International Education & Services Department and the Criminal Justice and Sociology Department have agreed to put money towards reimbursement of my international airfare! The total ticket for round trip flight was right under $1,900. I will be doing research while in country and receiving class credit through the CJ Dept. for my research. I am also using this research for my Senior Honors Project which will most likely also include a University event sometime next Spring.
The International Department has donated $750 and the Criminal Justice Department is donating $200!
I am very excited to receive this and cannot believe just how close this trip is! I leave July 20, which is a mere 15 days from today. How crazy is that?!
