[Utr] UTR badge

[Elena de Maisnilwarin]

I would really like to see the populace be given a voice in the badge chosen. I think this could only help increase awareness of UTR.

Perhaps September Coronet would be an opportunity?

In terms of voting, perhaps a display on or near the erics so it's easily accessible to the populace?

I haven't heard that a UTR session was requested for September Coronet. Halima (on the island) and Magdelena - were either of you approached?

Regards,
Elena

We really should get moving on our badge submission.
1) Was a final decision made as to whether we were going to request badge designs from the populace?
    Or were we just going with one of the designs I came up with?
 
2) Were we going to have the populace vote on their choice or decide amongst ourselves?
If the populace are being involved, we need to get it that part happening and someone should post information out on the various email lists (should this be from Magdalena or ??).  
If we're soliciting designs, the designs will all need to be checked for style registrability and conflicts before we start to look at what we like.  If we're going this route, I'd suggest it gets posted out to all the lists NOW with the deadline being Investiture (I'd prefer to get them before then, but I don't think that's feasible).
If the populace is voting - a) if its designs I came up with, it could be done at Investiture; b) if populace is submitting designs which have to be first checked, then Coronet is more reasonable for the vote.  I can prepare copies of the proposed badges for display.  How would we carry out the voting?  We need an area where the proposals can be displayed.  How do we insure that someone doesn't 'stack' the votes (or do we care)?  Who would be in charge of this?  I am likely going to be spending much of my time in the herald's pavilion (hopefully running a consult table).  I'm not sure if there would be enough room there.  If there are UTR classes being run, perhaps the registration desk could handle it?
