Publicizing and Event

There are many ways to get the word out
about your event on campus:

Atrium Tables - Reserve a table in the Coeur de Catherine Atrium through the Student Center and Activities Office. Tabling is a great way to hand out buttons, stickers, fliers, and candy. It’s also the perfect way to get the word out, especially during the free period on Tuesdays and Thursdays. You can reserve a table through the Atrium Table Reservation Form

Banners - Chartered Clubs and Organizations can have a banner up in the Coeur de Catherine for one week. Banners can be made in the Student Organization Center using the banner paper and die cuts. All you need to do is fill out a Banner Request and drop it off in the SCA office.

Buttons - Making buttons is fun! Come up with your own design (3 in. diameter) and make copies of your design. Reserve the button maker through a Button Maker Reservation Form and you’re on your way to great publicity.

Stickers - Stickers are great-stick them on your planner or stick them to other people! You can make stickers for your event by filling out a Sticker Request.

Posters - Have an 8 ½ x 11 you’d like to turn into a poster? Great. Fill out the Poster Request Form and attach your design with the form-you’ve got posters. Note: Cost per poster is $2.50.

Table Tents - Table Tents in the Dining Room and The Pulse are a great way to get the word out. Fill out a Table Tent Request with your information and people will be eating AND learning about your fun event.

Display Case - A display case in the Coeur de Catherine Atrium is another fantastic publicity method. A really unique display case can grab everybody’s eye as they pass through the building. Just fill out a Display Case Request.

Floor Windows - Grab the attention of all of the people coming in and out of the Coeur de Catherine. Put your poster in a Floor Window and soon everyone will know about your event. Just note on the Poster Request Form that you’d like your poster in a Floor Window and you’re all set.

Fliers - If you have a flier that you would like posted on the bulletin boards in the Coeur de Catherine, drop off six fliers at the Coeur de Catherine Information Center and the Building Manager will post five and keep one in the events binder in the Information Center. Note: All fliers MUST include contact information or they will not be posted.
