The Campus Violence Poster Project
February 16, 2008 | Levent OZLER
The shootings on the campuses of Northern Illinois University and Louisiana Technical College this past week and the tragedy at Virginia Tech University last April have brought a shocking reminder of how an ordinary, daily event can turn into tragedy.
This tragedy illuminates, however, the generous human impulse to want to help those who have suffered loss.
In response to this tragedy, The University & College Designers Association is orchestrating a poster project.
UCDA is asking members and designers to design a poster that reflects some aspect of campus violence-the shock of the event itself, the heroism of the survivors, or the importance of crisis preparedness.
This summer, UCDA's Designer magazine will feature the posters, and include them on the UCDA website for viewing.
Each one-of-a-kind poster will also be on sale through an online auction.
