The Orbit: In order to post to the Orbit, log in, click post a message to the digest, and select event if you would like to post to the calendar or other if you would like to post elsewhere. If you have any questions on the Orbit, please contact SOOC Chair Dani Chediak (dchediak@bowdoin.edu)

Poster Designs: When you submit a SAFC funding request, you can request $20 to have a poster designed for your event by a trained student poster designer. If the SAFC funds your request, you can select an individual designer by looking through a portfolio of the team's work in the Student Activities Office and hire them by simply emailing them about your design.

Poster Copies: The copy center can print posters usually within 24 hours of their submission. The costs are as follows: Letter/ Black and White: $0.02; Letter/ Color: $0.15; 11x17/ Black and White: $0.04; 11x17/ Color: $0.20. In order to have a copies printed by the Copy Center, please submit an online work order or go to the Copy Center in the basement of Dudley Coe with a flash drive with the poster saved in doc, xls, ppt, pub, mdb or pdf form.

Table Tents: The copy center will cut and fold table tents if you include that information under special instructions when you order. Please note that you must clear your table tents with Dining if you want them to stay for longer than one meal.

Tabling: Your organization can arrange to have a table in Smith Union on a first-come, first-serve basis by talking to the staff in the Student Activites Office.

Mailings: The BSG, in line with a student survey on the matter, voted last year to ban student organizations from distributing mass mailings to the Smith Union boxes. However, if you have a specific group of students you would like to circulate mailings to you can still use this form of advertising. In order to do so, you must label each piece of mail with the student's name and box number and turn them into the Mail Center. Please note that these advertisements must be at least 3.5 x 5 inches and that the Mail Center requires at least a week of prior notice. Also note that they will need your project number as your organization will be charged $5. These mailings will only be delivered on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays.
