WSRT Exhibit Rules Could you use $50? Or even $100? If you answered "yes," then you should consider entering the Exhibit Competition! This category of competition has been around a while, but we have recently developed some guidelines to help you out. Q: What's required for an exhibit? A: Two things - some sort of display and an accompanying 3-5 page written explanation of the exhibit. (The written report must include a title page and a bibliography in MLA format, also.) Q: What can an exhibit be about? A: The subject can be anything related to the radiological sciences, and may be supplemented with actual radiographs, charts, graphs, or other materials which are pertinent to the topic. The topic should offer some practical value and general interest to technologists currently in the field. So if you and/or a colleague have a cool way to position an odontoid that works every time, or you just had a very unusual pathology case come through your department, or you have an unsolved/solved artifact mystery on your hands etc., an exhibit would be a perfect way to share it with the rest of us (and make some quick cash!) Q: Where/when is the exhibit judged? A: All exhibits are to be set up on the Friday of each annual conference between 8 AM and 12 PM in the area designated by the WSRT Board and Education Committee. Judging will occur between 1PM and 4 PM on Friday. If possible, all entrants should be available between these hours for questions. Exhibits may be removed on Saturday after 2 PM at the earliest. Q: How is the exhibit judged? A: All exhibits will be judged in four main categories: Professional value, educational value and scholarship, practical value, and technical quality. Each category will be ranked as either outstanding, above average, average, below average. Q: Who 's eligible? A: Any registered technologist or student technologist who is a member of the Wyoming Society of Radiologic Technologists. Q· What do I get? A: First-place winners receive $100 and second-place winners receive $50. Or, if you don't want to do all of the work, enter with a buddy and split the prize money! Q: How do I enter? A: Simply submit an application to the Education Committee Chairman, which includes a brief description of what your exhibit will be about and what display needs you will have at the annual conference in September. (However, we do ask that you provide your own viewbox(es) if they are needed.) Q: When do I need to send my application in? A: All applications must be postmarked on or before July 1 to be considered for competition. It's not too soon to get started. (You could also enter the Paper Competition too, and double your prize money!) If you have any questions or need more information on any of the competitions or grants, write to Starla Mason at smason@mail.lcc.whecn.edu. (Grant applications will be ready for distribution in early April.)
