Prizes
The Graduate Student Association will offer prize money for exemplary presentations. Each moderator will name one presentor to receive $100 from each panel. A jury of UCSD graduate student alumni will judge entries included in the poster portion of the event. Prize money will be awarded to one first prize recipient ($100), one second prize recipient ($75), and one third prize recipient ($50). In addition to recognizing the work of presentors, GSA has put money foward to recognize the important supporting role of department colleagues. Two departments will receive additional social event funding for outstanding representation at the day's events. One large department (100 students or more) will receive the award for the largest number of attendees. A second, small department (less than 100 students) will receive the award for best percentage attendance. In order to be counted, all attendees must register with the check-in desk located between Price Center Ballrooms A and B. The announcement of prizes will take place at the afternoon reception beginning at 5:00pm in Price Center Ballroom B.
