Develop at least one proposal for external funding for any of the collaborative projects. Develop a CCI web-site to support communication between each of the entities involved in collaboratives. CCI members and the project coordinator will identify project needs and develop plans of action to secure resources. Furthermore, the project coordinator will seek acquisition of funding and other resources and implement them for the benefit of these projects. The Integrators on the Inter-Institutional Collaborative project have maintained good communication in a number of ways.
Integrators communicate by electronic mail on a regular basis.

The request for proposals was posted to the World Wide Web in January 1999. An evaluation instrument was posted to the web in February 1999. Allan Jones and Jon Pitts appeared on TV station KAMU in College Station where both the Collective Leadership Project and the Inter-Institutional Collaborative were discussed.
