The
Michigan State University Design Contest for College Students
began in 2000 as a way for students to enter work done not only
for a campus newspaper, but also projects done for a class, a
job or an internship. Those are the students who served as the
inspiration for the MSU Design Contest five years ago.
There
are a number of beginning student designers who have demonstrated
incredible talent, but they do so in the classroom or at a part-time
job. In much the same way, some of the most talented visual journalists—for
a variety of reasons—do not work at their campus newspaper.
These students are usually ineligible for other college design
competitions, where contest rules often limit entries to work
done for a student newspaper. The MSU Design Contest was established
to give those other students a voice in a national competition.
