Extra Information:
Thousands of leaflets are printed for Freshers' Fair, using up time, money and resources on leaflets not many people actually read.
When you went to the fair as a first year, did you actually read all the leaflets you were given, or did they end up in the bin?
We should be encouraging students to be more conscious of the impact of their actions on the environment. Not only does it cost a lot of money for these flyers to be printed, but think of the trees! Most of these will end up in the bin, and probably not recycling. Surely it would be better to direct students to Facebook pages or the SU website, and this can be done without the use of leaflets.
