Reminder: 2012 UCS Science and Democracy Editorial Cartoon Contest Deadline is Sunday, July 1

Want to start celebrating America‘s birthday early?

If so, be sure that you’ve submitted your entries for the 2012 UCS Science and Democracy Editorial Cartoon Contest before the Sunday, July 1, deadline passes by and it’s too late!

Your creative insights can help ensure that science continues to support our democracy for another 236 years.

Not convinced yet? Check out the top ten reasons that you or your friends should try your hand at becoming one of our 12 finalists (such as having U.S. senators not only see your work, but tweet it).

If you haven’t entered yet, you can get all the information you need on our contest web page, including details about submitting your cartoons, guidance on relevant topic areas, and a selection of some of the best entries from our previous contests.

And if you are not the best artist in your circle, please spread the word.

I can’t wait to see what you come up with!

Sincerely,

Michael Halpern Program Manager UCS Scientific Integrity Program
