Graduating Student Reminders for Slide Submissions (2024)!

Dear Graduating Students,

If you haven’t had the chance, we would like to remind you of an opportunity to submit PowerPoint slides for graduation to honor your family and peers.

For 20 minutes before the event starts, we will play a rotating show of slides submitted by the graduating students.  We suggest each student fill their slide(s) with photos of family and/or peers, quotes, messages of appreciation, and their art. We also encourage representation of first gen status, cultural background, and other important identities you’d like to share, or virtually anything that would be seen as interesting, inspiring and appropriate for the wide range of ages and cultures of family and friends in attendance. Graduating students may submit up to 2 slides.

The deadline to submit slides is 5/26 at 11:59PM

Guidelines for slide submission:

• Please use a horizontal orientation and, if photos, the resolution needs to be at least 1280 x 720 if it will be the full screen (the slides will be projected behind the stage on a large screen.)  The screen will be a 16:9 (widescreen style).
• Please name your file as follows: LastNameFirstName_ slide 1 (and 2 if you do a second slide).
• By submitting photos, you agree to the following:
  * You have received consent from all the participants in the photo you submit. The SSW, UW, and Office of Student Services are not liable for photo submissions that are displayed.
• The photos you submit are your own personal property or you have received authorization to have them displayed at the SSW Graduation Celebration. For pictures that are not your own, the author’s name must be cited. 
• We reserve the right to not use all slides submitted.  
• Link to submit:  https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfJcnIS3Q3ES7UO-l_yjjwj4u-fh0rVrlQs3mKobaXYr2GvCA/viewformLinks to an external site.
