Running Kinko's out of the back room

Even though we're all web savvy and can find just about anything we need between Google and Wikipedia, there's still a need for paper, flyers you can hold in your hand, and posters you can see plastered on bulletin boards and telephone poles.

New Student Welcome Night publicity isn't just word of mouth. Sure, we got a really big banner hanging on the student union out on Sproul Plaza. But we still need our publications, Photoshop, and Illustrator peeps to produce some cool stuff we can hand out to our friends and all the new students on campus.

Let's hear the numbers:

• 10,000 New Student Welcome Night flyers
• 5,000 Koinonia Welcome Night flyers
• 5,000 acts2fellowship Welcome Night flyers
• 1,000 New Student Welcome Night programs
• 1,000 Koinonia brochures
• 1,000 acts2fellowship brochures

Here's the people we can thank for all the pretty, in-full-technicolor prints: Tim, Jesse, Hartie, Kenton, and the whole team of innumerable people folding each of those brochures by hand. And it's not like they pick up all this stuff at Kinko's. They sit in front of the printers as each sheet comes out, hitting "print" for the hundredth time.

And then you have artists: Sieun, Myra, Kaitlyn, Hannah, Irene, and Margaret. One could speculate, perhaps, the reason for the dearth of artists hailing from the alternative gender: maybe they're still figuring out how to color within the lines?
