Snapshots

Every student at Olin will be given a free headshot to be put in the yearbook. Every student also receives 1/6 of a page for their personal snapshots. Students may also pair or form groups to have a collaborative snapshot: a pair will receive 1/3 of a page; a group of six will receive a whole page, etc.

Opt In

To reserve space for such a snapshot, the student must opt-in by putting a check next to their name on the Opt in list in the mail room. The Opt-in deadline for the 2007-2008 yearbooks has already passed. Any additional requests may be sent to the Yearbook email address and may or may not be put in the yearbook.

Forming Groups

The deadline for forming snapshot groups for the 2007-2008 book has already passed. You may email us to ask to form a group, but due to layout constraints we may not be able to accomodate your group.

Submission Deadline

The deadline for submitting your snapshot is Friday, March 14, 2008. Unless you submit your snapshot by this date, we cannot guarantee you a space.
