October, OSPRA celebrated the annual Grant Writer\u2019s Appreciation\u00a0Reception at the IDEA House, recognizing both faculty and staff for their successful grant writing contributions and contracts for sponsored research.\u00a0 The event has become a much anticipated annual occasion and focuses on bringing together colleagues from various university departments and disciplines.\u00a0 According to Dr. James LaPlant, Dean of the Graduate School and Assistant Vice President of Research, \u201cOur grant writers are the engine that drives sponsored programs at VSU.\u00a0 Grant writing has increased over the last two years as well as the external dollars requested in those proposals.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-100 size-medium
