Tip # 3: Actually look at the bulletin boards

One of the neat things about Nipissing is that there are tons to community/campus event notice-boards. They are used for a variety of things:

• Used books: the best place to sell and buy used textbooks. I've put up notices before about my textbooks and have sold them really fast.
• Volunteer/Club Oppertunities: Sometimes community or campus organizations that are looking for new members or volunteers will put up flyers on bulliten boards.
• Events: This is the best reason to look at bulliton boards. Most on-campus and even some community events will be posted on the boards. The notices will range from an upcoming community theatre performance, special lecture, workshops, conferences, social event, fundraisers etc. Speaking of that, you should totally come to the special talk presented by the CIC (Canadian International Council) on Monday, January 18th at 7:00pm at the North Bay Public Library by Commander Alex Grant.
• Random Notices: This is how I found out about the blog contest - there was a notice on the bulliten board. Other random notices I've seen: cats for sale and a poster that just said 4 8 15 16 23 42 (the LOST numbers)

So, tip #3 is to take a look at the bulletin boards - you just may find something interesting on them. And if you want to post something on bulletin boards - just remember not to post it on the NUSU board without permission, any of the department boards or on the walls (bulletin boards only!)
