Be specific about costs, listing each item individually and be sure to include the per unit price in the Description of Expense section (please see example below). Expenses should be listed specifically. For example, rather than "food" we need to know "Pitas from Taboun" and then the individual cost for that item from that establishment, and then the total cost for the pitas.

Please do NOT include $ in the Total Cost of Expense section (it messes up the form's calculations)!

I have reviewed this information with my supervisor.

In an effort to make an impact on your own campus community please limit the audience for your events to campus affiliated people (faculty, staff and students) in possession of a current campus ID. If you’d like to go beyond the campus community, please talk to the IEC.

I agree to the above statement.
