Teaching: First Year Florida
Community Service Project
Our entire class will be volunteering together to raise awareness about voting on campus. We will raise awareness by creating campaign signs and smear signs for fictional characters. Examples of these signs can be found on this website.
Requirements for this project:
- Meet at the Reitz Union Orange and Brew on November 1 at 6:30pm. Read (and, if you want to, fill out) a voter registration form. Read some basic material on the upcoming election (what positions are open). Read where you can find this information on your own. This will take under 15 minutes and will simple provide you with background on voting.
- Then, make the signs and help distribute the signs on campus. Please remember to keep everything fictional--the signs should not be for one party (person, group, whatever) or another. This is to promote awareness, so we have to be neutral.
- The signs should each have a character's name, a message for or against that character, the position that character is running for, and a link to this website: easterbunnyaffairs.org/election
- The website will soon have information on the project on it. Once we complete the project, we'll also add any photographs from the signs to provide an example and a reference for others.
