Event Promotions

There are many ways to promote your University or Community special events.  

Posters

The Memorial Union has designated three locations in the building for postings by members of the University and the local community; i.e. apartment for rent, stereo for sale, events, and help wanted notices. All promotional materials must clearly identify the date of the activity and the sponsor of the activity; i.e. Varsity Club Social or Event sponsored by Educational Opportunity.  Promotional material will be posted by Memorial Union staff on a regular basis, Monday through Friday, and will stay up for two weeks or when the event is over, whichever comes first.

All materials to be posted must be submitted to the Memorial Union Office for approval and posting.  To keep our postings areas from becoming cluttered, unapproved posters will be recycled.

Bring 3 copies to the Memorial Union Office (101) and we'll gladly post them for you.

Table Tents

Table tents are a low-cost advertising method that reaches a large amount of students at Michigan Tech. They consist of standard 8.5” by 11” sheets of paper folded into fours. Table tents are permitted in the Keweenaw Commons following the approval by Memorial Union staff and are intended to be announcements for current events.  Table tents are recycled each weekend and when an event is scheduled in the Commons.

You'll need approximately 120 table tents to cover all the tables in the Keweenaw Commons.

E-mail a PDF of your table tent to memorialunion@mtu.edu for approval prior to putting them on the tables.  The e-mail subject line should read 'Table Tent' and include your organization or department name.

Promotions Tables

There are two promotions tables located in the Keweenaw Commons that can be used by student organizations and University Departments to sell tickets to events, promote activities, recruit members, etc.  Tables need to be reserved in advance.

E-mail memorialunion@mtu.edu to reserve a promotions table.  The e-mail subject line should read 'Promotions Table' and include your organization or department name. The body of the e-mail should include the dates in which you are interested and information on how you plan to use the space.  You can also reserve the Promotions Tables through our online system.

Display Cases

University Departments and Student Organizations can take advantage of three display case spots in the vestibule of the main entrance to the Memorial Union.  Display case spots are reserved for one semester at a time and should remain up to date with current information.

E-mail memorialunion@mtu.edu to reserve a spot in one of the display cases.  The e-mail subject line should read 'Display Case' and include your organization or department name.  The body of the e-mail should include the dates in which you are interested and information on how you plan to use the space.  You can also reserve the Display Cases through our online system.
