Time to get paid - End of semester portfolio conferences

Important
  • You MUST have a 10-15 minute portfolio conference on April 27-29 to be eligible for a payment.
  • All paperwork must be complete.
  • You will be paid for material scheduled to run in the May 4 issue if you meet the April 23 deadline.
Details:

If you have had your work published in the print or web site between Feb.2 and May 4, you are eligible to receive a cash incentive payment for your work on The Accent newspaper.

Keep working and contributing. You will be paid for everything you contribute through the May 4 issue.

To claim your payment, you must do the following:

1. Make two clip files / working portfolios of your work. You must mount every contribution (Story, photo, art etc.) on a separate sheet of 8.5" x 11" white paper. One of these will be turned in during the portfolio conference. The other portfolio is for you to keep.
START THIS NOW, and UPDATE IT OVER THE NEXT TWO ISSUES. If you need more copies, grab some off of the stands, or stop by RGC 101.1.

2. Fill out the tally sheet BEFORE your conference.

3. Attend a portfolio conference between April 27-29. We will make sure all of your paperwork is complete, and I'll give you feedback on your work. I am scheduling appointments now.

4. Collect your check with our gratitude.

Reminder, here's the pay structure. Some of you are already racking up the bonuses. Keep on working!

– Two pieces published -$20.00
– Three pieces published - $30.00
– Four pieces published - $48.00 (20% bonus)
– Five pieces published - $60.00 (20% bonus)
– Six pieces published - $90.00 (50% bonus)
– Over six pieces - $10.00 / piece (plus bonus)
– Plus - $5.00 / piece raise per semester after the first
semester.(The raise is retroactive provided you can show me work
from previous semesters at the portfolio conference)

Notes -
Photography payments are limited to three payments per assignment.
Pieces published only online count as one piece for payment purposes.
Pieces published both online and in print only count as a single piece.
Bloggers receive payment at the rate of one per day of coverage, not one per post.
