		| Abstract: | 
		We report near-infrared SQIID photometry of 45 SDSS quasars ranging in redshifts from 1.867 to 4.250. Combining our JHKs photometry with reported optical magnitudes, we model the spectral energy distribution as a power law of the form fν ∝ να and compute α for each quasar. We discuss the change in α with redshift and possible implications for quasar evolution. |
