Each fall, the Office of Student Development Programs sponsors the Student Involvement Fair. This is an opportunity for departments, student organizations, and community groups to increase visibility while sharing valuable information. This year’s Student Involvement Fair will take place Wednesday, September 4, 2013, from 11 AM to 2 PM, in the University Quad (outdoors in direct sunlight). We invite groups that offer services to USI students to participate.
The fair has an exciting atmosphere. We encourage groups to add to that environment by creatively decorating tables, while offering games or giveaways such as food, t-shirts, cups, pens, etc.
If you are considering registering for a table, please note the following guidelines.
Table Details/Restrictions
• Student Development will provide one 6’ x 2 ½’ table and two chairs.
• ALL tables are ASSIGNED! (The fair will have a map to assist students with table locations.)
• Groups CANNOT stake anything in the ground during the involvement fair!
• Open Flame, candles, water, angel hair, glitter, confetti, and straw are NOT permitted.
• NO amplified sound. Due to the location of the fair, electrical outlets will not be an option. If groups choose to have small battery operated radios, the volume MUST remain at a low level because classes will be in session.
