STUDENT SPOTLIGHTS: ANIMATION AND PHOTO CONTESTS

The ASI Public Relations and Marketing Commissioner is hosting two separate competitions this semester. The first, ASI Animation Project (September-October 12), asks students to interact with the ASI logo in new and dynamic ways; while the second, ASI Photography Contest (October), will focus on capturing student involvement on campus. Both contests offer students a platform to showcase their unique abilities and artistic sensibilities. Cash prizes will be offered to the top three projects in each category.
