As a reminder, ORGSP does not print posters. You will need to bring your physical poster with you for the event. Many colleges/departments assist students with poster printing - be certain to first check with your department about this step. If your department does not aid in this step, please reach out to ORGSP for assistance.
Posters should be no larger than 36” x 48”. An easel and clips will be provided the day of the event. If you need an LMU-branded template, email natalie.sweet@lmunet.edu for assistance.
