Let’s personalize and beautify the Grad Center!
The A&S Graduate Center invites submissions of photography by A&S graduate students for the beautification of the new space in Ewell 250. Graduate students are welcome to submit up to three photographs for consideration. Photographs will be ranked by a committee of graduate students using a rubric to measure merit and suitability given the criteria listed below. Selected photos will be printed, framed, and displayed in the Grad Center through Spring 2025.

Criteria:
All submissions must be photographs taken by current graduate students. Please no AI-generated images. Submissions should include a short title and description/explanation of the entry. Images must be of high resolution (at least 300 dpi) to appear crisp when printed in an 11x17 or larger size.
 
We especially seek photographs that artistically represent the individuals who make up Graduate A&S, your broad-ranging areas of research, and your unique interests outside of graduate study.  Therefore, we encourage photographs that achieve at least one of the following:

  • Speak to the essence of your research and/or its impact (e.g., an image from your fieldwork)
  • Represent something important to you about who you are and where you’re from (e.g., a photo representing your hometown or a special place or event that is important to you);
  • Provide a glimpse of something that interests you outside of your graduate study (e.g., an image of an unusual bird by an amateur birder).
  • Help establish the Grad Center as a welcoming, comfortable space.

Details & Instructions:
Current Arts & Sciences graduate students may submit up to three photos for consideration online.

  • How to Submit: Submit up to three images using a single entry to this form: https://forms.office.com/r/hzjf1jBua5
  • File format & size: the submission form will accept .jpg, .jpeg, .tiff. Each image should be at least 300 dpi (but higher resolution is even better). Landscape and portrait orientations are both acceptable.
  • Be prepared to include a short title and brief description/explanation for each image submitted.
