</span></span><![endif]>We want to revise or create an entirely new logo for OCEES. We would like to hold a logo contest open to anyone in the OCEES community; faculty, graduate and undergraduate students (please pass this on students or announce in your classes).
We are incentivizing with a $200 cash reward for students (help pay for fees) or a $200 research supplies allotment for faculty. So get your artist mojo going and send in your best creative endeavors! Submit your logo to
<a href="mailto:roosenbu@ohio.edu">roosenbu@ohio.edu</a> as a tiff file or very high res jpg. OCEES will collectively vote for the best logo. Here are some features that will be important; must show up well in small size (think letterhead or in a presentation),
capture the breadth of disciplines in OCEES, and should be compelling. <o:p></o:p></p>
