Marketing Campus Site to College Students?

Question by iluvmusic9: Marketing campus site to college students?
I recently redesigned the Web site for the office where I work on campus at a medium private university. It is for the alcohol and drug abuse prevention office, and the previous Web site was not very informative and most students reported never having used it. The new site contains a lot of great information, but no one knows about it yet. Do you have any suggestions for getting students interested in checking out the new site?

Best answer:

Answer by larry o
drugs and alcohol provide a temporary escape from reality and sometimes that helps. especially since reality has gotten a lot more harsh lately than it ever was before. no one considers the negative affects b/c they think that their use of drugs is temporary and they can stop when they feel better. they’re usually wrong.
