Faculty Mini Grants
Each academic year, as college instructors prepare their courses and assess their department budgets, they often compile a wish list—envisioning the possibilities if they had access to a specific piece of equipment or an innovative technique to enhance teaching and learning.
Recognizing this need, the Barton Community College Foundation offers a Faculty Mini-Grant Program each fall, giving instructors the opportunity to apply for funding to acquire those special resources that can make a meaningful impact in the classroom. Since its inception, the program has empowered educators to integrate new tools, improve instruction, and elevate the student learning experience—demonstrating the Foundation’s commitment to academic excellence and innovation.
