A poster by Krysten Farrier, art freshman, and a postcard design by Aaron Campbell, art junior, were chosen as marketing tools for the Celebration of Scholarship, honoring the research of students and faculty.

The students made their designs as part of a project in their Computers for Artists class, according to Jennifer Yucus, who teaches the class and chaired the committee for the Celebration of Scholarship this year.

“My role was to make sure that the students had all the information that they need and then I acted as the creative director [and] guided them along the process,” Yucus said.

According to Yucus, the committee chose the designs two weeks ago. Yucus said Farrier’s poster design was chosen because the committee members thought it would appeal to students and faculty.

“If you were walking down the hallway and looked over, you would be like ‘Oh, the colors are bright, the topic is interesting, and it was executed nicely,’ ” Yucus said. “So we thought for students and faculty that was great.”

Yucus said Campbell’s postcard design was chosen because the community would associate the mustangs on the postcard with MSU.

“We thought that the mustangs symbolize MSU and to use those mustangs with the galaxy background would meet more of the community demographic because they think MSU—they think Mustangs,” Yucus said.

Yucus said 1,000 postcards will be mailed to community members to invite them to the Celebration of Scholarship.

“We are sending out 1,000 postcards to the community so that community members can come to the event, so that they see what our students are doing, so they have feedback for our students, and we have a concert,” Yucus said.

The Celebration of Scholarship will kick off April 28 with graduate student and faculty presentations, and continue until April 30 with more presentations from undergraduates, and a panel, as well as an award ceremony and a wind ensemble concert.
