This year, entries will be submitted through Google Drive, DropBox, or any file sharing platform that you choose. You will document your entries on a spreadsheet, found here (right click, select “open link in new tab,” and the spreadsheet will download). Titles of entries on this spreadsheet must correspond to the titles of the entries submitted via your file sharing platform. Please be sure to fill out the spreadsheet accurately and as completely as possible. Note that each category has its own tab at the bottom of the spreadsheet. Once your entries are uploaded and your spreadsheet is complete, you’ll simply share a link to them via email to zjdewitz@noctrl.edu. 

If you need alternative accommodations for entry submissions, if you have any questions regarding the entry process or the entry spreadsheet, or if you have any other questions, please contact Zach DeWitz at zjdewitz@noctrl.edu.
