Research • According to Ohio State Univ. Center for the Study of Student life: • Of 6,000 students surveyed, ~ ½ have credit card debt • Students are MORE worried about paying off loans, not credit card debt. • Stress caused by loan debt directly affects student’s grades and work habits.
Choosing our Audience • First Year Students– Too much info received upon entering college • Sophomores – Maintaining an independent lifestyle, more able to receive/understand message Sophomores
Goals and Objectives • Goal • To provide Otterbein University students with information and resources to promote wise spending habits. • Objectives • To reach a minimum of 200 students through an ambient art event. • To establish a forum on the Otterbein University Wellness webpage that can be continually updated by Financial Wellness faculty and staff.
Implementation Process - Website • Provides informational tips about financial wellness for students and faculty • Challenges • Approval process proved to be more of a challenge than we anticipated • Learned the importance of consistent communication with all parties involved
Implementation Process - Poster Campaign • Provided information regarding upcoming event • Posted in high traffic areas around campus • Focused on main sophomore areas • Devore Hall • 25 W. Home • Mayne Hall
Implementation Process – Event Planning • Promoted “Grab Some Green” Message • Included WOBN radio station for high energy atmosphere • Staged Photo Booth with money related props • 10 gift cards were given as prizes to lucky students
Facebook Event • Used Facebook’s Event tool to promote “Grab Some Green” event online • Challenge • Not every user could find the event through the search bar.
Evaluation • Count the number of fake dollars left on the tree. Out of the 240 that were printed, only 29 were left. • Approximately 50 photos were taken in the photo booth featuring one or more students who participated in the event. • The effectiveness of the website tab can be determined by its successful upload to the Otterbein University Office of Student Conduct & Wellness page. For future evaluation, web analytics can be used to see how many views the page has received.
