This week the Irving Shapiro Library, Career Services Office, and Humanities and Sciences Department submitted a letter of intent to apply for the Dreamcatcher grant offered through the Library Services and Technology Act administered by Illinois State Library. The letter of intent consists of a short description of the program that the grant funds would be used to provide. Here's what we're hoping to do if we are awarded the grant:
The American Academy of Art’s stART program will expand students’ palettes of post-graduation possibilities by introducing them to creative strategies for starting their careers. The library will partner with the Career Services Office and the Humanities and Sciences Department to present a series of guest speakers and programs that teach students how to identify and pursue non-traditional career paths, creative sources of funding, and other opportunities. Library resources that support these programs will be purchased and added to the permanent collection so that students can research the paths that best complement their interests and skills.
