Poster Run: Student Orgs, Campus Depts. and Community Orgs
Purpose: The main purpose of our weekly poster run is to provide our student org community with the opportunity to promote thier events, programs, and leadership devlopment opportunities.
Student Orgs - The poster-run service distributes posters to designated bulletin boards across campus, and Student Orgs can utilize this service free of charge. Posters must be advertising an event and be no larger than 11" x 17" (preferred vertical layout). The Student Org's name, event name, date, time, and location must be included on the poster to be approved. In order for the poster to be distributed, the event must be registered on Cowbell at least 2 weeks in advance of the event date. Before printing the posters, please email the design to studentorgs@uwyo.edu or bring one copy to the Student Orgs and Entertainment Office (Union 012) to get the poster approved. Once the poster has been approved, bring 30 posters to the Student Orgs & Entertainment Office by Thursdays no later than 5:00PM. Posters will stay up for two weeks or until the event has happened, whichever comes first.
