Please be prepared 20 minutes before your scheduled interview time. If the judges are ready early, they may call you in a few minutes before your scheduled time. You are responsible for the placement and removal of all props or equipment used in your entry. All exhibits must be in place in the exhibit hall before judging begins at 9:30 am. We ask that students with exhibits leave their projects up until 3:00 pm so that the public may have an opportunity to see the work. Michigan History Day, the Historical Society of Michigan, and Central Michigan University are not responsible for lost, stolen, or damaged items.

We understand that you want to give your students all the moral support you can. However, please remember that they have done a great deal of research and know their subjects well. Please sit back and relax: allow them to be the experts for the day! Please DO NOT TAKE PHOTOGRAPHS during performance and documentary presentations. It is distracting for both the students and the judges. Starbucks and Quiznos are both located in the Bovee University Center and will be open today. Many other dining options are available only a few blocks away on Mission Street/Business 127. Food vendors will also be available on the lawn in conjunction with the Gus Macker basketball tournament.
