Whether you are receiving funding from any other source, on or off campus
On-campus co-sponsors, reserved space, and whether food will be served
Flyer and promotion must start no later than two weeks out, and every CAMERA-sponsored event must carry the CAMERA logo. Ask your Campus Advisor if you need help with the flyer
