Re: pencils as advertisement

[Nick Carbone <nickc@english.umass.edu>]

Also, you can advertise *on* your pencils and you can use your pencils as
a *reason* to advertise:

Come to <insert your name here> Writing Center

Talk about writing!  Get help with revising!  Meet other writers.

First two hundred visitors this semester will receive a Ticonderoga 2
Word Processor, complete with power supply, unlimited RAM,
full-functioning revision and correction software, and automatic hardcopy
production, and full technical support built right in.




Post those around campus, and when students arrive, after their first
session, give them a number 2 pencil made by Ticonderoga pencil company.
The eraser's the correcting software, and the full technical support is
your writing center's name, location, email address, url, and phone number
embossed on the pencil.
