5. think about the IMPACTFrom the time you get out of bed and get on to doing what you do each
day, think how much information you are exposed to and how it is delivered.
Radio, newspaper, magazines, phone directory, television, packaging,
Internet ads, bill boards, signs—bus panels, cars, buses, park
benches, common carrier, baseball fields—shopping carts, direct mail,
event programs, airplanes, etc.

of the Mustang News facebook page - use three phases of creative
concepts to capture and keep attention and engagement strong. 2)
Partner with Athletics, ASI and Campus Housing to develop and

“In an editorial this month, the student paper,
the Mustang News, said fraternities haven’t
changed their behavior since Starkey’s death,
and the administration made a mistake in letting
them recruit freshman right away.”
—BLOOMBERG NEWS
“A reporter at the Mustang Daily — the student
newspaper at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo — wanted
a copy of an email for a story. He filed a California
Public Records Act request with the chancellor’s
office in Long Beach but he didn’t get it.”
—LA TIMES
“Cal Poly has kind of been a beta tester for Aware
Awake Alive,” Wyatt said, “and the goodwill that
sprung out of the tragedy in San Luis Obispo is
really continuing to keep San Luis Obispo the
place where the leadership and commitment
started and continues to this day.”
