Computer Science Logo Contest
Background
The School of Computer Science is interested in having a logo that can be used on letterhead, web pages, brochures, posters. etc. There have been attempts to create and select such a logo in the past, but there is renewed interest in re-visiting this initiative. To that end, the Commons Committee, on behalf of the School, is running a contest to find a winning logo. Previous submissions are encouraged to re-submit for this round. Prizes will be awarded (see below). The selected logo will be taken to the Graphics department for refinement/finishing. The selected logo will become property of the School to be used and reproduced as they see fit.
Guidelines
- logo should be original work and completely the property of the author
- the logo will need to "work" in both colour and black&white
- the logo should be scalable and be comprehensible at both small (eg thumbnail) and large size (eg: t-shirt or posters)
Submission process
- Provide one or both of:
- electronic (jpeg, tiff, pdf or similar) copy of the suggested logo
- paper (printed or drawn)
- an explanation of what your logo "means" (if applicable)
- submit your entry via email to: cs-logo@cs or via mail/in-person to either Lawrence Folland or Debbie Mustin
- Deadline: October 30, 2007
Who can submit?
- the contest is open to anyone who has an interest in the School of Computer Science, including any member of the University or the community
- members of the School Commons Committee are ineligible
Prizes
- Selected Logo: $600 cash (cheque)
- first and second runner-up: $200 each
- In the event that no logo is selected for official use, the top three entries will be given a $200 prize
