Baker Fund Committee
Charge and Membership
The Baker Fund Awards Committee invites proposals in support of research, scholarship, and creative activity at Ohio University. The committee seeks to support projects that are near completion and hopefully can be brought to full completion with the assistance of an award. All projects on which progress has been made are eligible for consideration. Requests for funds to initiate projects are more appropriately directed to the Ohio University Research Council (OURC). The scholarly, technical, or artistic merit of a proposed project is the primary criterion for evaluation. All projects are eligible for award consideration.
Composition

Education, Chaddock + Morrow College of Fine Arts, College of Health Sciences and Professions, Heritage College of Osteopathic Medicine, College of
