A year late after threatening to do this in CHI 2005, the next great CHI gathering next spring will include a student research competition. This is in addition to the student design competition, won the last two years (almost three) by Indiana University.
The details are vague, other than it has something to do with the Microsoft-sponsored contest (with $$$ prizes) and will have the same January 15 deadline. More information should be available in late September or early October. Not sure if this means we should submit what we are doing in some special form, or that there is some 3-month project everybody has to do on the same subject. Stay tuned …
