Theme Contest:
Design the theme for the 2010 SUSEF. Anyone is eligible: teachers, students, or judges. The theme should be a short, upbeat, catchy sentence or phrase with a clear relationship to science or engineering. (Past themes include: “Go for the Au,” and “The Greatest Science on Earth.”) A black and white sketch may be submitted with the theme.
Entries must be submitted no later than noon on March 27. Prior to the fair, entries may be e-mailed to the fair director (bronsema@suu.edu). Entries submitted on March 27 must be deposited in the boxes located at the Senior Fair Coordinator’s table (Centrum floor) or Junior Fair Coordinator’s table (Multipurpose Center). Entries will be judged and the winner, if there is one, will be announced at the Awards Ceremony.
Prize: Apple IPod Nano, and your theme displayed on fair promotional materials, including brochures, letterhead, and possibly t-shirts in 2010!

All Senior and Junior Fair judges are invited to attend a short training session on Wednesday, March 25, 2009, at 6 pm in the SUU Science Center.
