The clubs advertise by usingthe limited amount of five 8 ½ ‘x 11’ flyers. When students are looking at five flyers ofthe 28 clubs on campus, some may get lost in the few seconds they have to read andretain the material presented on the flyer.The students also don’t see how valuable it is to them for the future, because theyare classified as Generation Y, where they take “instant gratification” over “preparing forthe future”.
