Full Text of Announcement
I. Funding Opportunity Description
Purpose of Program: The goals of this
program are to identify and disseminate
information about exemplary and
effective alcohol or other drug abuse
prevention programs implemented on
college campuses. Through this grant
competition, the U.S. Department of
Education (ED) also will recognize
colleges and universities whose
programs, while not yet exemplary or
effective, show evidence that they are
promising.
Priority: This priority is from the
notice of final priority, definitions,
requirements, and selection criteria for
this competition, published in the
Federal Register on April 1, 2008 (73 FR
17867).
Absolute Priority: For FY 2010 and
any subsequent year in which we make
awards based on the list of unfunded
PO 00000
Frm 00013
Fmt 4703

applicants from this competition, this
priority is an absolute priority. Under 34
CFR 75.105(c)(3) we consider only
applications that meet this priority.
This priority is:
Exemplary, Effective, and Promising
Alcohol or Other Drug Abuse Prevention
Programs on College Campuses.
Under this priority the Department
provides funding to institutions of
higher education (IHEs) that have
implemented an exemplary, effective, or
promising alcohol or other drug abuse
prevention program on their campus. To
meet the priority, in its application, an
applicant must:
1. Describe the program that has for at
least two full years been implemented
on its campus, including the structure
and content of the program, the student
population that is targeted by the
program, and any unique features of the
program;
2. Provide a detailed theoretical basis
for the program’s effectiveness;
3. Provide data to demonstrate the
program’s impact on the target student
population, including evidence of
cognitive or behavioral changes, or both,
among the target population; and
4. Consent to a site visit to clarify
information in the application and
verify evaluation data.
Under this competition, the
Department selects an IHE for
recognition as having an exemplary,
effective, or promising program based
on the recommendation from the two
peer reviewers who conduct the site
visit. Therefore, note that selection for a
site visit does not ensure recognition as
an exemplary, effective, or promising
program by the Department.
Recognition Types
Contingent upon the quality of data
provided by the applicant and the
recommendation of site visitors, an
applicant may earn one of three levels
of recognition. Level 1 is recognition as
an exemplary program. An IHE whose
program is designated as exemplary
must:
1. Within 30 days of receiving an
award, provide to the Department a plan
to disseminate information about its
program to other IHEs;
2. Upon approval by the Department,
implement its dissemination plan; and
3. Enhance and further evaluate the
exemplary program during the project
period of the grant award.
Level 2 is recognition as an effective
program. An IHE whose program is
designated as effective must:
1. Within 30 days of receiving an
award, provide to the Department a plan
to disseminate information about its
program to other IHEs;
