Last call for "Coolest Picture of the Summer"

RELEASED: August 16, 2007

DANVILLE, KY—How do Centre students spend the summer? Some conduct research at the nation's top universities, including Harvard, Stanford and Johns Hopkins. Others head off to internships in locations ranging from China to Mexico, New Zealand to New York City. Some take on community service gigs. And of course, others take advantage of summer vacation for pleasure travel.

With all of that going on, the Communications Office wants to see the pictures. But there're only a few days left to submit them: the winner of the "Coolest Picture of the Summer" contest will be announced online August 23 and will receive an iPod Shuffle.

We're looking for ingenious, creative and resourceful pictures. Play with the gorillas during your internship, jam with your favorite band in concert, hike in the great outdoors or explore the nation's landmarks—and then send us the shots!

E-mail digital pictures to Cindy Long. Be sure to identify everyone in the picture and include a brief description of what's happening. Make sure pictures are at least 300 dpi. (The higher the resolution the better.)

Top selections have been shown as Photos of the Week all summer long, and all pictures will be entered in the Photo of the Year contest for a free digital camera later in the year.

Happy clicking!
