  • fit to HHMI goals & guidelines
  • articulation and justification for the problem and/or need addressed by the project, including convincing faculty and staff buy-in, where appropriate
  • creativity
  • impact of the project
  • fosters collaboration with others (particularly science and math faculty, and involved college staff) at Carleton on emerging intellectual themes (e.g. neuroscience, modeling and visualization, broadening access, etc...)
