[Jlabsa_gs] *Deadline approaching* Ninth Annual Poster Competition for Graduate Students- A message from Melissa Cummings

[Lorelei Chopard]

***Reminder to all graduate students - the abstract deadline for the poster
competition is May 22nd!***

To all students,

We are happy to announce the Ninth Annual Poster Competition for
Graduate Students!  The poster session will occur on Monday June 1st, at
the Users Group Annual Meeting in conjunction with a reception.  The
first, second, and third-place prizes will be $500, $250, and $100
respectively.*New this year*, each winner will additionally receive $500
in travel support to present their work at a meeting of their choosing.

Judging criteria: Judges will weight the poster and the presentation so
that 40% of the score will come from the poster itself (poster quality),
40% will come from the presentation to the judges (command of subject
matter), and 20% of the score will be based on the total impression made
by both the poster and the presentation.  Please remember that a poster
should be concise enough to be read in its entirety in less than 10
minutes! Posters with excessive detail will be penalized.

Interested students should submit an abstract electronically (.ps or .pdf
format) to:lorelei at jlab.org.  <https://mailman.jlab.org/mailman/listinfo/jlabsa_gs>   Abstracts must be received no later than
Friday, May 22nd, and should be 300 words or less*.  Those participating
should register for the Users Group Meeting.  Students that are delivering
a talk are still eligible to submit a poster.
