RE:  Requests for Technology Fee Funds

The link at the bottom of this page leads to the Technology Fee Request Form, which should be used when requesting Technology Fee Funds. Also included are Guidelines which the Technology Advisory and Planning Committee will use when considering requests for Technology Fee Funds.

Technology Fees are received on a credit hour basis as part of the Unified Fee.  The more students enrolled and the more credit hours generated, the more tech fee funds we have to work with.  Technology fee funds are distributed among UMA's two campuses according to enrollment percentages. 

Please note the deadline for requests is April 1.  Requests received after the deadline will be considered if additional funds become available.  Requests received without the requested information will be returned.  The Committee intends to make a decision on all requests on April 9, which will allow the Committee to develop a spending budget for next fiscal year.

This process is followed every year in order for Faculty and Staff to have a chance to plan for the future.  Completed forms should be submitted via the web.  Questions can be directed to any member of the Augusta or Bangor Committee.  Augusta:  Tom Abbott, Chuck Baker, Jo-Ann Cole,  Lauren DuBois, Tricia Dyer, Jerry Gamache, Doug Ki

nchen, Russ Lombardi, Rob Marden, Peter Milligan, Claudia Quintal, Eric Stark.  Bangor:  Chuck Baker, Diana Bartlett, Diane Blanchette, Lauren DuBois, Gillian Jordan, Diana Kokoska, Rick Pare, Rob Roper, Bryon Sibley.
