Weekend Reminder

This is to remind you about your "homework" for the weekend. I expect that when you come to class on Monday you will have brought at least 4 flyers/posters you collected over the weekend. We're looking for flyers that are either exemplary or sucky ... and maybe some that are just okay. Pay attention to the fonts and colors and words and pictures and if they have any run-on sentences (like this one). Don't stress over it, just collect them.

The best place to find them are either in your dorms, common rooms, or at tomorrow's Bronco Bash. Here is some copy pasta telling you more about the Bash:
"Crowds nearing 25,000 are expected to gather on the campus of Western Michigan University for the 29th annual Bronco Bash from 3 to 8 p.m. Friday, Sept. 11, at Fountain Plaza near Miller Auditorium.

"The gathering is an annual rite of passage into the fall semester, and a great way for students to check out what WMU and the local community have to offer. With live bands, lots of free stuff and novelty games with prizes, it is also a fun way for students to socialize, meet new people and celebrate the start of a new school year.

"The bash is free and open to the public, and will feature more than 450 student organizations, WMU departments, community groups and local businesses giving out freebies and answering questions about their products, services and opportunities. The event will kick off with a Sept. 11 tribute and performance of the national anthem by the WMU Pep Band. A diverse lineup of live bands, including headliner Sugarcult, will play throughout the night."

I have no idea who or what Sugarcult is, but it does not sound promising.
Well, do have fun with this assignment. You will be working with these flyers for the next two weeks, so it's in your best interest to put in what little effort it takes to grab a piece of paper.
