Presenting

Check here for tips on making and printing a great poster, where and when to set up your presentation, what to wear, taking breaks to view other posters, and free food and drinks at the event.

Make an appointment with the Writing Center or the Digital Media Lab to get help with your presentation:

Poster Types and Sizes

You can display your poster as a flat poster on a display board. Templates are available for various sizes of posters. See Posters for more information.

Printing Your Poster

°µÍøTV students, faculty, and staff can submit posters for printing to  for general, academic and research purposes. Use the Research Posters button under New Orders for printing your research poster for the Celebration. See Printing for more information.

Setting up Your Poster

Poster Location Assignments

You will be assigned a location to present your poster in DeVos in late March. At that time you will be able to open the event spreadsheet and find your location. Click anywhere on the spreadsheet and then press "control+f" or "command+f" to search for your name or the name of your project. Or you can use the filters at the top to select your department. Once you find your poster location number, check the map of DeVos (also provided in late March) to find your location. 

Poster Set-Up

Posters will be set up on Thursday, April 10, before the event, because Junior Day uses the facility Friday morning. We both want to respect their use of the space and want to showcase your amazing work as a preview of Celebration. Admissions will be using the upper concourse for their event, and it is exciting to look down on the court and see so many intriguing posters. We hope that these potential students and parents will accept our invitation to come back and view your posters later that day.

Setup: Thursday, April 10, 11 a.m.–5 p.m.

You may set up your poster when it is convenient for you within the above time frame. Push pins will be provided.

Name tags and Programs

A registration table will be at the southwest (clock tower) entrance of DeVos, where name tags and program booklets will be provided. Come and get your nametag before you begin presenting. The program booklet includes the poster location numbers and a map of poster locations in DeVos.

What to Wear

Please dress in business casual. For men we suggest dress pants or khakis and a shirt with a collar. For women we suggest dress pants or knee-length skirt and a blouse or shirt with a collar. Jeans, yoga pants, athletic clothing and short party dresses are not appropriate. Please wear comfortable shoes, since you will be standing by your poster for the majority of the three hours. You will be representing °µÍøTV to prospective students/parents/donors and the Holland community.

Viewing other Posters, Free Concessions

Feel free to take a couple of 15-minute breaks during the event to view other students' presentations and get a snack from concessions. If you have multiple presenters on a project, rotate among yourselves so your poster is staffed at all times. Single presenters should be mindful not to leave their poster when the presenter next to them is absent if possible. 

Free concessions will be provided for all who attend.
