Other Expenses

 * Description: HIP is a student group that provides grants for students who wish to create independent projects outside of the classroom, but are prohibited by the costly materials to do so. Especially in the arts, from where most students apply for HIP funding, students receive no other financial help from the school to purchase necessary materials, much less materials for work produced outside of the classroom.  HIP was formed to reward and help those students who wish to learn and create on their own, outside of the classroom.  We limit our funding to students whose projects exist only outside of the classroom and play no part in their academic class work. In our granting of HIP monies, we do not discriminate among the disciplines and we follow up to ensure that all HIP productions are made available to the Hampshire community, per our mission statement.  Last semester we received a total of $13,000 from FiCom and we were able to fund 95% of the valid HIP applications we received.  We are asking for the same amount of money this semester.
 * TOTAL: $ 10,000.00
