Google Ads

Check with WSU if we're allowed to use Google Ads on our

RHA a week in advance for distributing to the dorms

Ultimate LAN party end of semester

Raffle off prizes (charge for tickets)

Burn LiveCDs with legal games (usually demos)
No illegal software
List what tournaments we will have (Counter-Strike, Warcraft
III, etc.)
List what demo games we will have
Try and get the CUB Ballroom for room (WSU provides the power
;))

Use the CUE lobby for food to get around the 'no
