Private parties or exclusive events will not be funded.
An event cannot be purely social in nature. It must include a performance, speaker, cultural or educational component, etc. SLPG will not fund cash prizes of any kind. Any equipment or supplies purchased with SLPG are the property of Johns Hopkins University. Your proposal should include a plan for storage, security and future use of the purchased equipment. Equipment must also be made available to other student organizations after it is used for your program. SLPG does not directly fund charities or community agencies. SLPG cannot be used to fund retroactively. The grant committee reserves the right not to fund recurring or repetitive events.
SLPG will not fund alcohol. If alcohol is a part of a proposed program, the event must take place on campus. All events with alcohol must abide by the university’s Alcohol Policy, found in the Undergraduate Student Handbook, as well as state and local laws. If alcohol is present at the event, an equally attractive non-alcoholic option must be available, as well as a meal or substantial food.

The SLPG receives its budget from a variety of sources which support collaborative efforts to sponsor student programs. Funding sources include the President's Office, the Dean of the Zanvyl Krieger School of Arts and Sciences, the Dean of the G.W.C. Whiting School of Engineering, the Parents Fund and the Dean of Student Life. These offices have provided funding for this committee to act as a clearinghouse for student group funding requests.
