| Year
of Darwin Poster Competition
There is grandeur in this
view of life…… from so simple a beginning
endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful
have been, and are being evolved. ~Charles Darwin
2009 marks the 200th anniversary of Darwin’s
birth and the 150th anniversary of the publication
of On the Origin of Species.
To honor his extraordinary achievements and their
unparalleled impact on the field of biology, the
Department of Biology is holding a poster
competition to celebrate these important
anniversaries. The winning posters will be selected
for display in the Dow Science building starting
January 2009. Each winner will receive $100 in prize
money.
The posters are to be created using PowerPoint.
Suggested final display dimensions are in the range
(width x height) 24” x 32” to 36”
x 48”, using portrait or landscape layout.
Submissions should be printed in color on 8.5”
x 11” paper and submitted in hard copy, along
with a brief description of what the poster is intended
to convey to the viewing audience. The deadline
for submissions is Friday of 9th week (Fall 2008),
by 5pm, to Andra Elksnis, Biology Office,
Room 300, Dow Science building.
