Make a Difference: Help High School Students Get into College and Study Computer Science!




A Day in the Life of Computer Science Students at Queens College

Dear QC student:

You are invited to submit photos you take that reflect a day in the life of Computer Science students at Queens College. A selection of these photos will be used at the upcoming NYC CS Fair<http://www.csfair.nyc/> on March 29. This is a city wide event to educate high school students about getting into college and studying computer science. Below are the rules you should observe:

  1.  Each photo must include Queens College Computer Science student(s), and/or students in the ACM club, Computer Graphics Design Association, Try! Swift NYC meetup, Python user group, FreeCode Academy.
  2.  You are encouraged to take photos that reflect what students do, e.g. projects, club activities, field trips, presenting in class or in workshops, attending QC or external events, networking, etc.

  3.  You are encouraged to team up with students from other departments to take photos together or of each other.

  4.  You must be the owner of those photos with consent from the people in the photo.

  5.  You must allow Queens College to use those photos for promotional purposes.

  6.  You should follow the naming convention as defined here: Your first name + your last name + 3 digits sequential number with no space in between, all lower case. For example, if I submit photos, I'd name them: yingzhou001, yingzhou002, etc.

Here is the link you can use to upload your photos (this link will be open for entries until March 28):
