THREE Graphics to grab for final print issue!
Your last chance this semester to see your artwork in print!
Hey everyone!
I hope you’re all staying warm and cozy as the weather drops! Our last print issue of 2023 is coming out this coming week, and we’ve got three graphics to be assigned to wonderful artists. If you’ve been wanting to contribute and haven’t yet, now’s your chance! If you’d like to claim a graphic, reach out to me (Carleen) at graphics@theconcordian.com (or feel free to ask me any questions or tell me any ideas you have!).
All the graphics below are due back this Sunday, November 26th at noon.
Title: Concordia and the Indigenous Directions Action Plan
Description: Concordia is preparing to re-open the Indigenous Directions Action Plan, to check on its progress and plan the next few years. Actions have been taken, programs have been put in place - but has Concordia changed? And how do Indigenous students feel about the progress?
Suggestion: The plan has a broad array of suggested actions (increasing funding for Indigenous students, creating space on campus for Indigenous community, incorporating Indigenous history and perspectives into class curriculums) overseen by a governance body of Indigenous professors and students. I’d recommend creating a graphic of what one of these suggestions could look like at Concordia (but also open to other suggestions!)
Title: The Art of Leadership
Description: What makes leadership an art? How can people in positions of leadership use creativity as a means to cultivate teamwork and productivity? How can leaders respond creatively while problem-solving?
Suggestion: A person in business attire, holding a brush and palette and painting a business model (or a stocks graph, a money symbol, it can be silly!)
Title: Do tips to tackle seasonal depression actually work?
Description: Asks whether commonly-mentioned tips actually work through quick interviews of Concordia students and each person's individualized methods.
Suggestion: Someone sitting, covered by blankets in a dark apartment, holding one of those seasonal depression lamps up to their face (or draw from other common tips — someone running outside in winter, drinking in a cafe with a snowstorm outside, etc.)
That’s all for 2023, thank you so much everyone who’s kept up with us this semester, and a thousand thank you’s to the amazing contributors who have worked with us so far.
