  Background

Each year SIGUCCS sponsors Communication Awards to recognize outstanding publications developed at college and university computing centers. These awards recognize excellence in developing useful and attractive publications and provide SIGUCCS conference participants with an opportunity to review model publications that may help them develop or enhance their own work.

The awards are presented at the ACM SIGUCCS Fall Conference.  Anyone is welcome to display their materials in the Documentation room at the Fall Conference. 

First place award winners will be encouraged to present their materials at the Fall Conference Poster session.  All award winners will be invited to a special recognition breakfast during the conference. 

One entry will be designated the overall winner for each category. However, in recognition of the differences in resources available to small schools versus large institutions, there may be two award levels in each category for second and third prizes. Schools with less than 4000 full-time undergrads will compete in Level 1 and those with 4000 or more, in Level 2.

  Participate in 2008

Your entry must be developed by staff affiliated with your college or university. Institutions may enter up to three entries in each category. An institution may not enter a category judged by one of its staff or faculty members.

Details on submissions can be found on the conference web page. Look for information as it is posted for the Fall 2008 conference.  

Note: This year's first place winners in each category will judge the publication competition next year.
