#PELstories Contest
Rules
How It Works. Post your PEL story (in words and pictures) on your
Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter page using the hashtag #PELstories. PEL will share your stories on its Facebook page. The
first ten eligible submissions will receive PEL tote bag full of beach gear.
Eligibility. The #PELstories campaign
is open to all PEL students and alumni. To be eligible to win a prize, entries
must be among the first ten (10) Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter posts
featuring the hashtag #PELstories.
Deadline: The contest will open on Monday, May 16th and close on Friday, May 27th. No entries will be
considered eligible after 5:30pm on Friday, May 27th.
Submission Guidelines. To be considered for a prize, entries must adhere to the
following guidelines:
●
The entry must demonstrate
the contest theme of #PELstories.
Judges encourage creativity in interpreting this theme.
●
Entrants may submit as many
entries as they like, but only one prize per entrant will be awarded.
●
The submission must be the
original work of the entrant. Submissions cannot have been submitted previously
in a promotion of any kind.
●
All entries must adhere to
the following content standards: 1)
entries must not violate intellectual property rights or rights to privacy; 2)
entries should not be disparaging to any person or entity, and should not
promote hatred, harm, or unlawful discrimination. The contest organizers will
not post any entries that do not meet these standards, and reserve the right to
disqualify any entries not adhering to these standards.
●
Entrants should ensure that
every person who appears in a photograph submitted under the #PELstories hashtag has consented to
having his or her image appear on Facebook and used for the purposes of this
contest. This is especially true in classroom settings (see below). Any person
not wishing to appear in a photograph for any reason should be excluded from
the frame of the photograph. The contest organizers reserve the right to
disqualify from the contest any submission for which proper consent was not
given.
Prizes. The first 10 eligible submissions will be awarded a PEL tote bag filled
with beach gear. Winners will be notified by email on a rolling basis, and
prizes will be held for pickup at either campus (St. Petersburg or Tampa),
depending on winner’s preference. If a prize is not claimed within 10 days, it
will be forfeited and awarded to another entrant.
A Note About Classroom Photography. The classroom is primarily a space for learning and
entrants wishing to submit a picture of a PEL class session should observe the
following rules of etiquette:
1.
Obtain the permission of
the instructor before class.
2.
Tell other students that
you intend to take a photograph and agree to exclude from the frame anyone who
does not wish to be included in the photograph. Remember that the Federal
Educational Rights and Privacy (FERPA) Act protects the right of individuals to
keep certain information--including enrollment in a particular class--private.
3.
Take pictures before or
after class to avoid disrupting your instructor or fellow students.
