Some ideas for advertising ResLife events:


Chapel Slides. Send PowerPoint slides to Diana Tocheff or Abby Scott.

Posters. You can have an RD print a 11 X 17 color poster for 80 cents or 11 X 8.5 for 40 cents.

Email. If you want to learn how to send pictures or backgrounds on an HTML email, come by Student Development some day and ask Ryan. Make sure you add a catchy subject line.

Word of mouth. Always works well for smaller events, especially just before an event.

Word of many mouths. Communicate with other RAs and have them spread the word.

Announcement at another event. Attend another RA's event and ask them (in advance) if you can advertise your program.

Coupons for free food. Use the coupon as your promotion of time, date, place and theme.

Make Faculty Aware. Specifically get faculty involved with any educational programming that may relate to their subject matter, they can advertise for you and you may suggest that they offer extra credit to their students that attend.

Channel 24. This is a new option for advertising of campus events. This is open to ResLife events that are being advertised campuswide. Posted below is the policy for anyone interested in this option:
