New Winner of the TerryTop iPad 3 Contest
8:33 am | Palo Alto University, Student Genius | No comment
Please join me in congratulating Antonia Jose-Davis, the winner of the Student Genius Terry Top iPad 3 Contest.
Antonia is a full time student at Palo Alto University focusing in Business Psychology. She is currently working as a professional hairstylist at Supercuts.
Here is how she describes herself in her Student Genius Profile: “Supporting others is what I do best. Sharing my knowledge and experiences so others can be as successful if not even more so. There is nothing that I cannot accomplish. Always open to learning and gaining more experience. There is never such a thing as knowing too much.”
Terry Top was very excited about her business ideas and looks forward to implement them soon.
Antonia joins the five other students who have won our previous contests.
Also, stay tuned to our Facebook page where we are about to launch a new version of our Contests. We are very excited about this one.

Create your video resume, video message or just upload a video
7:52 am | Help, Student Genius | No comment
We’ve seen several video resumes on Student Genius so far. The creativity is phenomenal.
This post will take you through, step by step, how to record or upload your video resume on Student Genius.
1) Make sure you are logged into your Student Genius account
2) Click on the edit button on the top right hand side
3) If you don’t already have a Video Widget on your canvas, add it. Otherwise, click on “Record Video Resume”
You now have the choice to either record a Video Resume directly from your computer or, you can choose to upload a video.
If you upload a video, you will need to be patient for the video to upload and then once it’s complete you will see an image signifying the video is not available. This means the video is being processed. After a few seconds, refresh your screen and your uploaded video should be ready.
We will proceed describing the option to “Record Video Now”. Click on the red button.
4) Next a window will pop-up asking you to authorize the service to use your webcam. Click Allow.
5) Select the quality you want for your video
6) Fix your hair, Press Record and begin showcasing who you are. Click the red button again to stop. And then click Save. If you don’t click save it will not save your recording.
7) Refresh your screen and wait a short while for the video to process. Then watch it to your heart’s content on your canvas.

You have been helping to build the student movement, and we have been giving away iPad 3′s away for your help!
Meet the winners of the iPad 3 giveaway so far:
Hannah Low- Hannah built an incredible Student Genius profile using the timeline and imaging. Then, she spread the word using just about every social media source available to her. Take a look at her Contest Canvas–
James Taylor is our second winner. James was able to take advantage of the video feature in the Student Genius profile by uploading his “Video Resume”. Pretty cool! He then was able to submit over 180 entries into the giveaway by taking full advantage of social media promo on the behalf of Student Genius. Personal Facebook messages inviting all of his friends to Student Genius, Tweets, Facebook posts and personal emails added up and got James an iPad 3!
Our most recent winner is Jericho Lopez. We have seen Jericho talking about us online, but we had no idea he was in the realm of over 1,400 giveaway entries! He has been busy shaping and re-shaping his Student Genius profile and we love what he has done with it– but amidst enjoying the Student Genius potential, Jericho has been busy inviting over 1,300 friends, using the SG photos on his social media sources and chatting us up all over the internets!
Congratulations to our winners so far! We will soon be announcing the 4th winner later this afternoon, but there is still time for you to enter into today’s (and the final) giveaway!

Student Genius without a mustache ends up Celebrating St. Patrick’s Day
2:23 pm | Student Genius | No comment
So I posted our logo icon without a mustache today as our profile pic on Facebook, Twitter, and Google +.
We want this version of our logo icon to symbolize the MOVEMENT AGAINST STUDENT UNEMPLOYMENT. So, I asked the community what they thought the no mustache look symbolized. Here is the response I got:
Apparently, Ryan Innes thought a beard would be better than a mustache. And then within a few minutes, check out what Lorne Sleem created for us!
At least now we don’t have to be pinched for the rest of the day.
And if you were wondering why we took off the mustache, we took off the mustache to symbolize the current state of where we are as students. Our voice is not being heard. Did you get that? Let me try it again.
Our voice is not being heard!
Let’s all work hard and show employers what we can create on our canvases so we can put on the biggest student talent show in history!
