Evan Michals, 07, a Dartmouth Student and an employee of the Student
Computing Help Desk, won the silver award in the 2007 Computer Security
Awareness video contest conducted by the Security Task Force in the
30-second public service category.
The videos were selected as the winning entries for the 2007 Computer
Security Awareness Video Contest to raise awareness of and increase computer
security at colleges and universities.
The contest sought videos that explain computer security problems and
specific actions that college and university students can take to safeguard
their computers or personal information. The contest had two categories of
videos: two-minute-or-less training or instructional videos, and 30-second
public service announcements. The winners' videos, as well as those receiving
honorable mention, are available online
and are meant to be used in campus security awareness campaigns during
student orientation and throughout the year.
In all, there were 56 submissions from 24 colleges and universities.
