GRAPHIC DESIGN ASSISTANCE

All of these marketing resources require specifically sized artwork, or it simply can't be used. If you decide to take advantage of any of these and need design assistance for the artwork, we recommend meeting with Signum Design. They are a student-run design firm located in the �鶹ӰԺ Student Center, which is available for no charge to student organizations.

Plan ahead when utilizing Signum or any other design firm. You'll want to get your project started with a designer at least 3-4 weeks before the artwork deadlines outlined below.
