- When will the results be known? The results of the regional competition will be announced by Friday, April 4, 2025, via email.
- How can I make my poster stand out? Remember, it is a data visualization poster competition, so judges are looking for many outstanding graphs rather than deep statistical research. See the competition rules. The text on the poster should cover 25% of the area or less. The rest should be covered by wow graphs.
