[Isl] Friendly Reminders: Student Poster Research Day & ISL Planning Grants

[Callie Kindelsperger]

Good morning all,

Hope everyone had a great weekend.

This is just a reminder that if you have students who have not already done so and are interesting in applying for our Esther & Dell Grosser Scholarship, to please have them submit the requested materials in a PDF format to me by March 6th (This Friday) The event is on March 27th, from 2-5pm in the Atrium 2nd floor lobby of the Psychology Building, and we are actively looking for students to participate and present a poster at our event. A few of you have already emailed me some students who are interested in presenting along with their applications, so that is great! We are hoping to get a few more involved.

We are hosting a $750 Esther & Del Grosser Scholarship for student research as well as a prize (to be determined at the event) for best poster this year. The $750 award is open to your graduate students.  The poster award could involve graduate or undergraduate students working with you.

The following complete information is required for consideration of this award and is due to me no later than March 6th :


  *   A one-page letter from the student indicating how their research contributes to the Institute's mission, as outlined in the "Our Goals" section of the ISL web site: www.isl.fsu.edu<http://www.isl.fsu.edu>.
  *   A letter of recommendation from you, the student's advisor, highlighting the student's accomplishments and why you believe that they merit the award.
  *   Your student's CV.

Please combine these materials into a single pdf file that you can attach to the nomination email.

We hope to see you and your students out at this event.

2nd reminder is we are pleased to announce that our ISL Planning Grants website is now up and running and ready to accept applications. The application deadline for Spring 2020 is March 23, 2020 at 11:59 pm. Please note that once the deadline passes, we will not accept any other applications. When you are submitting your documents for submission, please note that once all of your documents on the checklist have been submitted, and you click "Submit Application" the program will NOT allow you to make any changes, so if you expect to be needing to make revisions to documents, it is advisable that you save your sessions and be certain that everything is the way you want it before you hit the final submit for your application.

Important Dates to keep in Mind:
*         Application Deadline: March 23, 2020, 11:59 p.m.
*         Award notification: May 1st, 2020
*         Award Period: May 14, 2020 - May 15, 2020


The projects must be interdisciplinary. FSU Faculty members must team up with someone outside of their department.  Here is the link: https://isl-fsu.us.fluidreview.com/  We encourage everyone to log in with their FSU credentials. If you have any questions or concerns about the application process, don't hesitate to reach out to me via email, as that is the fastest and most effective way to reach me as I check it often.

Thank you,
