海角社区 is actively seeking a new mascot, and members of the 海角社区 Community are invited to be the designer. Though we have been aptly named the 海角社区 Navigators, we have never had a true mascot to illustrate this name. With 海角社区 merchandise popular on campus and with a goal of increasing student sports, there is a definite need to have a mascot that reflects our collective identity.
During the fall semester, students were surveyed to find out what new merchandise they would like to see in the 海角社区 Bookstore. One overwhelming response- 海角社区s needs a mascot to show off on apparel. As a student focused campus, we strive to listen and respond to desires such as these. Therefore, a campus contest was conceived to create our new 海角社区 mascot.
Anyone connected with 海角社区- students, employees, alumni, parents- are invited to participate in this contest. The prize is an iPad Mini, bragging rights, and the pride of seeing your creative design on 海角社区 apparel!
The contest is now open, and the deadline for submissions is Monday, April 6th by 5pm. Mascot representations may be presented as a line drawing or as a digital work of art. Only original artwork will be accepted. Participants may submit multiple entries, but each must be submitted separately.
The winning design will be selected through a combination of private and public judging. A small team will be assembled on campus to winnow the field down to the top three candidates. Once this decision has been made, voting will be made public and open to the entire extended 海角社区 Community through the Facebook page.
We鈥檝e already received some creative and well designed entries. We even have a tagline suggestion from Dr. Huff for the first t-shirt to utilize this design- 海角社区 Navigators: Still Undefeated.
Good luck to all of you participating! During the second week of April, look for information on voting for the final winner.
