Flagship Fund 2025
The 2025 Flagship Fund sought proposals for one-year grants of up to $10,000 to foster the development of sophisticated and adaptable thinkers capable of asking enduring questions, of civic-minded problem solvers who strengthen our social fabric, and of service-oriented leaders who shape the future of our state and nation.
UM faculty and staff submitted proposals by March 1, 2025. The Flagship Fund Advisory Group – a group of UM faculty, staff, and students – reviewed the proposals and met with proposal authors in late March for discussion. The Advisory Group made its investment recommendations to President Bodnar and Provost Lawrence in early April, and leadership finalized the decisions in late April.
