TAM 2014 forum grant program

Folks,

In the great tradition of yesteryear, it is time to open the forum grant program for TAM 2014. If you are interested in receiving a grant to cover some or all of the TAM 2014 registration fee, please send me a PM or an email. You must include your name, postal address, email address, and a short paragraph explaining why it is that you should receive a grant. Please also indicate whether you are a student and whether you are a JREF member (not just a forum member).

We ask that if you apply for a forum grant, your plan is to attend all the TAM sessions, rather than simply "hang around at TAM."

We need donations to make these forum grants work. Starting today, you can send a check to the JREF with "TAM 2014 forum grant donation" written on the memo line. Soon it will be possible to donate online; I will make another post with the specifics when this option becomes available.

Thanks to all who donate to the TAM 2014 forum grant program!

~~ Paul

Ten people have applied for forum grants and I just awarded the first grant!

Don't hesitate to apply, folks. Now is the time to get yourself on the request list.

As of today, 16 grants have been awarded. There are 3 people on the request list.

There are not enough funds for all the folks on the request list, so please consider donating to the TAM forum grant fund. It's easy to do online:
