George Mason University, with the support of the ACM SlGGRAPH Education
Committee, is sponsoring a computer graphics Student Poster and Animation
Competition and Exhibition.  The posters and video pieces will be on exhibit
in Dallas, Texas, August 6 through August 10 at SlGGRAPH'9O.  Selected
video pieces will also be shown in the Information Age exhibition in the
Smithsonian Institution, Washington, DC.
     
This competition provides an excellent opportunity for students working with
computers to exhibit their creative work.  lt is open to all students
currently attending elementary or secondary schools, colleges or universities.
We encourage teachers to have their students make posters and video tapes
using computers, to select the best works produced in their classes, and to
enter them in SPACE.
