Operation College Campus Blitz

Duquesne is taken care of.

Duquesne starts back on the 27th. I will be personally overseeing handouts of information on that day. Anyone else near Pittsburgh is welcome to get in touch with me. 607-592-3386 or [email protected]. No stalkers please. I'm already dating one and she's plenty creepy! <3
 
I am running(unofficially) the Georgia State University college blitz.

If you want information on the event, send me a PM, and when everything is compiled, I will let you know.

:)



PS: we hear you Jennifer, don't worry
 
Campus Meetup Groups

How about starting a meetup group on every college campus.

We just did that here today.

This will get Ron Paul activities going on around the campuses.

For example. If you are in Syracuse, New York and have a meetup group there,

start promoting for students. When Students join your group and a
leader emerges, get them to start a meetup group at their school.

Like The University of Syracuse Ron Paul 2008 Meetup Group.

If they need help, the Buffalo group goes to help, but otherwise just
let the students get on with it. They will thrive that way.

They'll have a blast.

And they will get things going in their own way in the dorms and soforth.

I think this will eventually start to happen naturally anyways.
 
Maybe another approach is to imagine what a college student might carry around that you could offer for free along with some Ron Paul material. One idea might be #2 pencils printed with Ron Paul 2008 and the website address.

Other ideas?

These cards are really nice (good information) and ON SALE right now (for the next hour and fifteen minutes :( ) But yeah, I just ordered some. They'll be great to hand out when I talk to people about him (which I've been doing a whole lot of since my friends are back from summer break :D )!
 
Yesterday I came up with a great (though maybe a little silly) idea for the campus blitz, and I'm totally going to do this. I'm going to make a backpack anchored Ron Paul sign. It'll be tall--extending above my head. And I'll change the signs around, personalizing them to make Ron Paul sound very appealing to the college crowd. I'm really pumped about this. My "Ron Paul 2008" button gets a lot of attention/looks, so I know a big sign sticking out of my backpack will really stand out.
I hope my description makes sense. Just imagine the signs on sticks that people carry around at Ron Paul speeches and stuff. I want to make one that I can carry around in my backpack and that will be taller than my head so everyone around can see it. I'm gonna feel a little insecure to begin with, but I'll know it's for the best cause, so I'll have confidence I usually don't have.
I'm really excited about doing this. I'm not usually very out-going, but Ron Paul inspires me. If the media won't cover him and all of his greatness, then we've gotta step up our game people!!!
I'll keep you updated on how construction is going. Hopefully I can be carrying my big Ron Paul sign around campus everyday really soon!
I'm pumped. :D

All other college students should do this, too! It'd be so much better than bumper stickers and shirts and buttons.
And we can personalize them. Make them really catchy. It'll be so awesome.
This could be big...don't you think? :cool:
 
Anyone actually DOING anything to distribute Ron Paul's stances on the issues to college students? We have THREE months and then this thing is all over.

Do we want to win enough to step out of our comfort zones?
 
I am working on getting a flyer into the the universities college newspaper in our area. They allow a 8 1/2 x 11 flyer insert.

So my thoughts on both sides
Side 1: Founding Fathers
Side 2: either: One of the great flyers I saw posted here on his record and issues, A candidate comparison chart, or both (both might be tricky)

Thoughts?

I would distribute, but I am away from home 10 out of 14 days, and the college is about 4 hours away.

Reccomendations:
- Include a Sudoku on the page. Seriously. It works. This will get people to actually keep the insert around during class. With this, you'll want to make the insert NOT glossy. People should be able to write on it easily.
- Concentrate on issues that are targeted toward college students. The liberty card has a pretty good run-down of the ones college-students favor: http://www.libertytalk.com/liberty_card.php
- Make sure there is a bullet-pointed list that covers what you REALLY want to get across. This list should stand out from everything else. Everyone will read through the bullet-point list so long as it is short and concise; then, the interested will read further into the paragraphs of information.

I like this idea a lot. I'll see how much it costs to get this done here at Purdue.
