More than 200 high school students from around the state of Hawai`i entered UH West O`ahu's Flyer Contest to win one of 10 iPod Nanos and the chance to get their work published in Sassy/G Magazine. Participants were asked to create a flyer that promotes UH West O`ahu as a top choice for college-bound students. The 10 finalists were selected by a committee comprised of UH West O`ahu staff and a Sassy/G Magazine representative. The general public was invited to vote online for the grand-prize winner.
