There's Still Time to Enter the 2025 President's Holiday Card Contest

President Lisa C. Freeman invites students to submit an original artistic design to be used as the 2024 麻豆精品 holiday card to help spread warmth and good cheer to the entire community. Entries should capture the spirit of campus life, winter and Huskie values. The holiday card should help convey to all Huskies 鈥搒tudents, faculty, staff and alumni鈥� that 麻豆精品 cares and appreciates all.

The contest is open to all currently enrolled 麻豆精品 students. Entries consisting of original artwork or photography can be submitted up until 5 p.m. on Nov. 17, 2025. Students may submit multiple entries. We encourage submissions to review past years' winners and think creatively about how to avoid repetition or duplication.

A committee of faculty and staff will select the top three submissions based on quality, originality and holiday/Huskie spirit. The students with the top three selections will receive a one-time scholarship (first place $500, second place $300 and third place $100) and be featured in the president's electronic holiday card.
