SET Funding
A portion of the Student Event Ticket (SET) fee is devoted to "developing and show casing conspicuous student talent." The financial support enables UNK to explore additional opportunities in programs that develop student leadership skills or that provide venues for students to display intellectual talent and other exceptional accomplishment.
Students are encouraged to apply for these funds. Support for faculty or staff cannot be provided with these funds. Highly meritorious proposals directly impacting student talent development will be approved each year. The Chancellor of the university has final approval authority for use of the funds.
Pepsi Funding
Under the terms of our agreement with Pepsi Cola Corporation, a limited amount of beverage products and logo items are provided to the campus. Review of applications for these items will be done monthly. Students are encouraged to apply for these funds. Since the resources are limited, preference will be given to requests that are central to the mission and vision of the University of Nebraska at Kearney as well as in keeping with the good reputation and image of Pepsi. Approval criteria will include:
- Events that benefit students and the recruitment of students.
- Requests that further the vision of the institution as a premier residential university for undergraduate education.
- Only organizations and groups directly associated with the University of Nebraska at Kearney are eligible.
RSO Catering Funding
Under the terms of UNK's exclusive agreement with Chartwells, an annual $25,000 Student Catering Fund has been established to support the catering needs of registered student organizations.
