With the college's centennial less than a year away, a new graphical representation is needed to help celebrate this once in a lifetime occurrence. Bakersfield College Marketing and Public Relations & Bakersfield College Graphics Center are looking to the campus population to create this representation.

This competition will not only provide the college with a commemorative representation, it will forever honor the winning artist(s) by adding their name to the rich history of our campus.

In addition to the pride and recognition, a $1000 prize will be issued to the winner. The time to tap into your best creativity is now!

Below are the official rules and guidelines for the competition. These rules and guidelines should be strictly followed. Not following these rules may result in instant disqualification. Entries must be submitted by 12 p.m. on December 7, 2012. Winner will be announced December 17, 2012.

The terms "Centennial" and/or "100 Year Celebration" or variations of such should be used in conjunction with the words "Bakersfield College."

3. The current official school colors (red and black) must be incorporated into the design. The acceptable reds and their CMYK percentages are listed below. As this is a commemorative logo other colors are permissible such as gold, gray, etc. Optional elements like the "Renegade Knight" mascot or any other historically or geographically associated items are open for use as long as it is original work.
