Temple University invites students to participate in its T-shirt Design Contest. Two winning designs will be selected by a panel of judges, and students will vote on their favorite via Instagram. The winning designs will be turned into merchandise, and prizes will be awarded to both winners.

We look forward to seeing your ideas. Contact us at brand@temple.edu with any questions.

Design Requirements
To be eligible for consideration in the contest, designs

• can be in any number of colors and appear on the shirt’s front, back or both. (The shirt itself must be red.)

• must include the headline “Take Charge” and the hashtag “#TempleMade.”

• must incorporate the official Temple University logo; please email brand@temple.edu for the official logo file.

• must not be larger than 15" ✕ 15".

Winners
Each winner will receive $150 in Diamond Dollars. The creator of the design selected by student votes—determined by an Instagram contest on the Temple University (@templeuniv) account during the week of Dec. 15, 2014—will receive an additional $50 in Diamond Dollars. The two winning T-shirt designs will be turned into merchandise.
