RAW: Responsibility Always Wins

The first RAW project that I went to was the one that we all did in our RT 301 class. There was a mock "pass-out" outside of the Lawson building held at 11am. Everybody from our class laid on the ground as if we were passed out to spread binge drinking awareness. I thought it was partially effective, but I also know it could have been better. It was held during a time when most people were already in their class rooms. If it was held at a time when more people were around it would have been a whole lot more effective.

The other one that I went to was just after that. There was a group of people dressed up in party shirts and they were acting out a mock tailgate. Their shirts read a lot of different things, such as "beer pong champ." They were also wearing SIU hats and an SIU "number 1 hand" was their. They were playing beer pong (with water) and had many beer bottles around. Slowly they would act more and more drunk. I thought it worked because it was in a good location and it happened during a period when a lot of people were around. They were also very loud and attracted attention.
