	abstract = {Recent work suggests that strong emission line, star-forming galaxies 
may be significant Lyman Continuum leakers. We combine archival HST
broadband ultraviolet and optical imaging (F275W and F606W,
respectively) with emission line catalogs derived from WFC3 IR G141
grism spectroscopy to search for escaping Lyman Continuum (LyC) emission
from homogeneously selected \$z{\textbackslash}simeq\$2.5 SFGs. We detect no escaping
Lyman Continuum from SFGs selected on [OII] nebular emission (N=208)
and, within a narrow redshift range, on [OIII]/[OII]. We measure
1\${\textbackslash}sigma\$ upper limits to the LyC escape fraction relative to the
non-ionizing UV continuum from [OII] emitters, \$f\_\{esc\}{\textless}\$5.6\%, and
strong [OIII]/[OII]\${\textgreater}\$5 ELGs, \$f\_\{esc\}{\textless}\$14.0\%. Our observations
are not deep enough to detect \$f\_\{esc\}{\textbackslash}lesssim\$10\% typical of the low
redshift Lyman continuum emitters. However, we find that this population
represents a small fraction of the star-forming galaxy population at
\$z{\textbackslash}simeq\$2. Thus, unless the number of extreme emission line galaxies
grows substantially to z\${\textgreater}\$6, such galaxies may be insufficient for
reionization. Deeper survey data in the rest-frame ionizing UV will be
necessary to determine whether strong line ratios could be useful for
pre-selecting LyC leakers at high redshift.},
