Attention Research Appreciation Day Poster Participants
Poster panels have a display area of 57"w by 36"h. Only Velcro may be used to secure posters to the display panels. Velcro will be available at the information table inside the entrance to the poster session. Media Services has prepared an instructional presentation. Please follow these instructions and your poster will be a success. Please do not copy and paste graphics your poster may print to your desktop printer but will not print to the postscript printers used for wide format printing.

Deadline for Media Services to Design your poster is March 23rd, 2012. Deadline for Graphic Arts to Print your Posters is March 30, 2012

There are always many RAD posters to print and limited time available. The earlier Media Services receives your poster the better. We can print your posters after the deadlines indicated, but a rush charge will be applied. We are here to help you - and your assistance in preparing your files correctly will make Research Appreciation Day preparations go smoothly.
