Hope this helps — Deb ------------------------- Deb Bartlett Director Office of Procedures, Records, and Forms Washington State University Pullman, WA 99164-1225 509-335-2004 From: "Diver, Tinu" <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Reply-To: Association of College and University Policy Administrators <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Date: Friday, April 7, 2017 at 5:10 AM Subject: Crowdfunding & Dissertations Hi all, Does your institution have a policy or guidance around students using crowdfunding (www.experiement.com<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.experiement.com&d=DwMFAg&c=C3yme8gMkxg_ihJNXS06ZyWk4EJm8LdrrvxQb-Je7sw&r=iqHR1B_HJlUU6vlFd3lUew&m=84h5XP1MPr2iNWq3OOfoCuit0qkTQfTZFmsCJbO0vDk&s=yqE-ABHKs6Xg0oi5DxOcV26xnquohNAMHgdT_yW2aEI&e=>, etc.) to fund dissertation research? I’m also interested in any general policies/guidance around crowdfunding institutional/University research whether for student/staff/faculty. For those that do, I’m particularly interested in how/if policies/guidance address potential COI, use of institutional resources including facilities, institution name/logo, etc., and any overlap with development policies for gift reporting. I did find this from Stanford which was a helpful first step: https://doresearch.stanford.edu/sites/default/files/documents/crowdfunding-for-stanford-research.pdf<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__doresearch.stanford.edu_sites_default_files_documents_crowdfunding-2Dfor-2Dstanford-2Dresearch.pdf&d=DwMFAg&c=C3yme8gMkxg_ihJNXS06ZyWk4EJm8LdrrvxQb-Je7sw&r=iqHR1B_HJlUU6vlFd3lUew&m=84h5XP1MPr2iNWq3OOfoCuit0qkTQfTZFmsCJbO0vDk&s=FwGNthONlm55gZuUlL_w22PSJTo9BijhyqrVmW4toaI&e=> Thanks all, T Atinuke “Tinu” O.
