Tag Your #NYITFirsts and Win NYIT Swag
September 6, 2016
The new school year is here, and it’s time to make your way around campus to find your classes and other places you’ll be spending time. Sure, you can probably catch a few indigenous Pokémon on your travels but why not also share your back-to-school journey and win some NYIT swag along the way?
Here’s How to Enter:
- All current NYIT students are eligible.
- Post pics of your experiences in or around NYIT's campuses on Instagram, Twitter, or Facebook, and tag with #NYITFirsts, #NYIT, and/or #NYITDidThat, as well as @nyit_photos (Instagram).
- The photos must be of your experiences in or around campus.
- Post pictures by September 20. If you prefer to wait for just the right lighting and inspiration to get that perfect shot, you have plenty of time. (We hope this will be one of your least stressful deadlines this semester.)
- After the deadline, NYIT’s social media team will select the top three photos, post them to the university’s Instagram account (@nyit_photos), and tag the original submission account(s). The person who submits the photo with the most likes will win an NYIT sweatshirt, just in time for autumn weather and pumpkin picking.
Remember: Please be respectful of your fellow students and faculty staff members, and refrain from using profanity in your posts. #kindnessmatters
Your entry grants NYIT permission to feature your photo on university accounts and website. Your submission must be made by no later than Tuesday, September 20, 2016.
