Nifty Assignments

   There is no theme for the web contest this year. Developers may be as creative as possible with their entry, including with the subject itself. The subject for the web site can be anything within the bounds of good taste and it could have been developed prior to the contest. It cannot be a previous winner in any web contest.

   Each team may consist of at least two developers and no more than three. No more than two teams from one school may register. No student may be on more than one team.

   Registration deadline (entry form submission) -- September 21, 2005
   Final web site submission deadline -- October 9, 2005
   Judging starts -- October 10, 2005
   Notification -- October 22, 2005

   Submission deadlines are at midnight of the dates given above.

   First- and second-place winners must register for the conference at the student rate, giving them access to all sessions, exhibits and keynote addresses. In addition, they receive a Saturday luncheon ticket. A banquet ticket is not included for Web contest winners, but may be purchased separately upon registration. All participants (registered for the conference) are cordially invited to a pizza party on Friday, November 11. This event will take place in the MultiPurpose room in the Shuford Physical Education Complex, and will run from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. (overlapping with the conference banquet). Drop in any time. The last batch of pizzas is scheduled to be delivered at 7:30.

   First Place -- $100
   Second Place -- $50

   Sponsors of the teams developing the winning sites will be notified immediately after the judging phase is complete (October 22). First- and second-place winners are expected to register for the conference (at the student rate) and to be present at the conference luncheon for the presentation of the awards. Attendance by one representative of the team is sufficient.

   All contest entries will (if possible) be displayed in the conference exhibit area throughout the conference.
