One way to post the issue of drug use on campus is to feature the horrific, gruesome things that happen to people who use drugs. Use a large poster of a witch stirring a pot. Next to her, show glass jars with dangerous drugs in them. Across the bottom of the bulletin board, post news articles about famous people that have died from drugs, as well as locals that have encountered troubles with the law or health. List consequences across the board that could occur from drug usage.
Come up with a list of places that students must visit. These places can be on campus or even within the metro area. Make sure students know all of the hot-spot locations around town. If there is a coffee shop that all of the students flock to, put it on the board. If you live in a city like Washington, D.C., or Chicago, post major landmarks, museums, concert venues and sports arenas that must be visited during their college careers. Add photos to the board, then place an address underneath. Ask students to build upon the board as they discover their campus town.
College is a time when many women begin to feel self-conscious about their bodies. With the pressure that is placed on women by society, it is easy to see why they feel this way. Create a bulletin board with facts about media literacy. Show examples of how flawless models have been airbrushed. Post tips on how to deal with body image issues. Recommend body positive books such as "Body Outlaws" and "The Beauty Myth."
Welcome freshmen to their residence with a bulletin board featuring popular college movies. Many freshmen arrive to college with the idea that college is exactly how it is portrayed on film. It's important to make new college students aware of the myths behind such films as "Animal House" and "Van Wilder." But, it's also fun to show them the truth behind the college movies as well. Post photos of popular scenes with an explanation as to why it is fact or fiction. Ask students to write their favorite college movies on the board. Update it with photos from the movie, as well as an explanation as to whether or not the movie is fact or fiction.
Display a large map on the bulletin board. Give each student a set of stickers to post on the map. Ask them to post stickers on the map to show where they have been. This is a way for students to talk about their travels. This may be particularly fun to do around the time that a study abroad fair is hosted.
