Capstone College As the program assistant for the Digital Arts Department at Capstone College in San Francisco, you often help the department head to edit and format the proposals he writes to request new programs, additional funding, and so on, from Sara Yaretz, the vice president of Capstone College and the person responsible for allocating funds. The department head asks you to help him write a proposal requesting funding to take the students on a one-week trip to the animation studios at Disney World in Orlando, Florida. To complete this case study, you write the proposal.

1. Open the file Case1_08.docx located in the Project.08 folder included with your Data Files, and then save the document as Digital Arts Proposal Questions in the same folder.

2. Write answers to the questions to help you develop content ideas for the proposal.

You are free to make any assumptions you want and can make up information about the students and the program. Thirty students will be going to Orlando for one week so your proposal should include information about costs. Check the Internet for flight information and hotel costs so that the cost information you provide is realistic.

3. Type your name where indicated in the footer, save the document, and then print a copy.

4. Open a new blank document, save it as Digital Arts Proposal.docx, switch to Outline view, and then write an outline for the proposal. Make the outline as detailed as you can so that you can write the proposal quickly.

5. In Print Layout view, write text for about 50% of the proposal. Make sure you include all the required topics and subtopics; however, you can omit text for some of the topics if you want. Make sure your proposal includes, at a minimum, an introduction, a description of the benefits of the trip to students and the college, a proposed schedule for the trip, and the cost information.

6. Add a title page and a table of contents to the proposal and format the page numbering correctly. Remember that you need to add a section break between the table of contents page and the first page of the proposal. The page numbers should be formatted in the i style for the table of contents page and the 1 style for the body of the proposal. 7. Include a header that starts on page 1 of the proposal text and contains the text Orlando Trip Proposal centered and in bold.

8. On the title page of the proposal, include the proposal title, the name of the vice president (Sara Yaretz, Vice President of Capstone College), your name followed by Digital Arts Department, and February 2, 2011 as the date. Format the text attractively.

9. Save the proposal, print a copy, and then close the document.
