What does sustainability at MIT look like to you? The MIT News Office invites the MIT community to participate in its first Sustainability at MIT Photo Contest to explore what a sustainable MIT campus means. Show us what you see and what your aspirations are as MIT launches its greeningMIT campaign to help the Institute walk the talk on energy and the environment.
The grand-prize winner will receive an iPhone and have his or her winning entry published on the MIT home page and in MIT's official newspaper, Tech Talk. Prizes will also be awarded to the first- and second-place finishers.
The contest is open to all current MIT staff, students and faculty, and entries will be judged by a diverse panel of MIT community members on originality, aesthetics and relevance to the topic. The contest is sponsored by the MIT News Office and the Campus Energy Task Force of the MIT Energy Initiative. The contest runs through March 31; winners will be announced in mid-April.
