THORNDIKE FUND

What is it?

The Thorndike Fund exists to help reimburse students for the costs of preparing a thesis or other Honors project. Each year the available money is stretched to go as far as possible in meeting student requests for assistance with printing and binding. Seniors with Honors projects in studio art and film are also eligible to apply to this Fund.

How to apply:

Submit Thorndike application to Beth Labriola detailing your copying, printing and binding costs. Applications will be available in March outside the Registrar's office.  YOU MUST INCLUDE RECEIPTS OR YOU WILL BE TAXED ON THE REIMBURSEMENT.  Be specific about the amount of money you have spent and name the sum you would like to receive.   At the very least, request the cost of the two theses you must print and bind for the department and Olin.  Everyone is eligible, you do not need to be receiving financial aid, but need may be a factor in the reimbursement amounts.

Thesis submission day, April 14, 2008 , is the last day on which Thorndike Fund applications are accepted.

You will be notified via email when the funds are granted.  If your request is granted you should receive a check before Commencement.
