Exploring Conference Poster Formats

An interactive session on elements and principles of poster design. We'll be looking at different formats and the reasons you might chose one or the other, from the standard paper-on-a-page to emerging formats including visual abstracts that focus on networking or quickly spreading ideas. This session will focus on design strategies for scientific conference posters, but these strategies are applicable for other disciplines as well.

2022 Juneteenth Observance at Tufts

As President Monaco shared with the Tufts community on June 6th, this year marks Tufts' third observance of Juneteenth.  Staff across the Tufts libraries have brought together information (yes, mostly books, but also some audio and video sources) to situate the historical context of the first Juneteenth celebrations, works by this year's keynote speaker Dr. Jelani Cobb (bio), and some key works of anti-racist theory.

RA x Digital Design Studio (DDS) Poster Program

To celebrate the end of the school year and relationships built in residential communities on campus, RAs and their residents are invited to come design a poster to represent or commemorate their residential community and spirit. Participants will be guided by Studio Assistant and RA Heather Huang '23 to collaboratively make a poster using Google Draw (connected to the projector so that those who are not working can see what is happening in real-time). Participants will each have 10 seconds to add one thing, pass it off to the next person, and go around until the design is complete.
