Associated Students Publicity Center wins award for poster design

The Associated Students Publicity Center won “Best Poster Design” in the student division of the Association of College Unions International Region 14 “Steal This Idea” design competition for the Associated Students Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Alliance Ice Cream Social poster design by Michael Murphree.

The competition took place during ACUI’s regional conference at the University of Montana in Missoula, Mont. Murphree’s poster competed against designs from 40 other institutions, including schools from Oregon, Idaho, Montana, Alaska and from three Canadian provinces. This is the fourth time the AS Publicity Center has won “best poster design” at this annual competition.

The Ice Cream Social poster was created through various hand-crafting techniques, photography, Adobe Photoshop and then assembled in Adobe Illustrator. Murphree, a senior in the graphic design program, is the current Digital Signage manager and designer for the AS Publicity Center.
