Hello,

Lee LaTour in EMU Marketing suggested we contact ASDA. The Division of Student Affairs distributed an ABS Notebook (http://tour.absnotebooks.com/get_involved.html) Spring Term and would like do a second notebook for Fall 2009. Our spring notebook cover and school specific pages were designed by a student and we would like to do this with our fall notebook as well.

We are inviting several students to show us some of their past design work, one of which we will select to design the Fall 2009 edition. We would like to invite students in your group to submit your past work. Electronic submissions are preferable and may be sent to this email address.

If you choose to participate, please submit your work to michele@uoregon.edu by 5:00pm, Tuesday, April 28. We have a somewhat tight deadline for the final product (mid-May), and are planning to select the student artist Wednesday, April 29 and schedule a meeting with the student as soon as possible.

uo-asda: Fwd: Web site deisgn inquiry

From: "Bennett Benson" <bbenson@uoregon.edu>

Hello,

My name is Ben Benson. I am a journalism major with a focus in PR. Right now, I am in a group working on a communications plan for our client, Catholic Community Services. Currently, CCS' Web site is really outdated. Our job was to make recommendations and advise them on how to change it. We don't have the capability or the time to actually update the Web site. After all, the term is almost over. However, we were wondering if there was any way we could give CCS ASDA's contact information to redesign their Web site in the future. This could be solely for a student interested in working with a real client to get a start on their Web design portfolio, or it could be included as a class project.

Also, would your student group be able to design brochures as well? CCS could use some fresher looking brochures for several of its programs.

Thank you,
Ben
