JACH Cover Photo Submissions
In order to have a photograph of your student health center
considered for publication on the cover of an upcoming issue of the Journal of American College Health, please submit the following information to Ted Grace, JACH photo editor.
- A high-quality color digital photograph of at least 300 dpi that
is horizontally-configured. Please shoot the photo of the facility
from its best angle, eliminating power lines, signs, and other
obstructing factors. We prefer pictures taken at sunrise or dusk when
the colors are warmest, and that the facility fill most of the frame
rather than be a distant shot. Lower quality photographs tend to
become pixelated when they are enlarged, so the higher quality the
photograph, the more likely it will be used. If your photograph is too
large to send as an email attachment, then either send it on a disk
to the address below or contact Dr. Grace for a web address where it
can be uploaded.
- A written description of the photograph that is around 150-200
words that tells about the facility, including services provided,
something about how it came to be built or fits into campus life,
architectural facts, its history, etc. This essay will be edited.
- Consent to publish the photograph, which can be emailed directly to Ted Grace by the photographer or owner of the photograph.
- Title for the Photo that includes facility name, university, and location. For example:
Varner Student Health Center
James Madison University
Harrisonburg, Virginia
Please provide all of the above information in a single email.
