High school students weave winning Web designs in BGSU contest
BOWLING GREEN, O.-Students from Stryker, Perrysburg and Sylvania Northview high schools won the first High School Web Contest sponsored by Bowling Green State University.

A Stryker High School entry designed by students Parker Meyers, Josh Hoover and Michael Stanley was judged as the best high school Web page, earning the school a $500 cash award.

The prizes were awarded Oct. 23 at BGSU's fourth annual Northwest Ohio Technology Fair in the Bowen-Thompson Student Union.

A total of 19 entries were judged on the basis of content, design and ease of use. Each design had to include a main page, with at least three internal links, and four to eight pages overall. The contest was open to all high schools, public and parochial, in 21 counties.

"BGSU is glad to provide the opportunity for the high school students to show their technological talents," said Duane Whitmire, director of the University's Student Technology Center. "It just shows the advancement of technology at the high school level and the quality of the products that students at that level can produce."
