Free Poster Printing
We offer free printing to USASA endorsed clubs that have their events listed on the USASA website (as explained above).
Poster packages consist of 40x A3 posters and 80x A6 flyers (single sided) and are free to clubs (one package per event). Please allow 2-3 working days if you supply the design or 10 working days if you require the poster/flyers to be designed by USASA. Email your designs as a high quality PDF (or club and event info if designed by USASA) to usasa.printing@gmail.com. If you're supplying your own design, it must include the USASA Clubs logo to help identify it on campus noticeboards. You can download the logo pack here (6.5MB)
Posters on Campus
Posters are a great way to promote your bake sale, pub crawl or meeting.
However it is important that clubs understand the rules for placing posters on campus.
How And Where to Put Up Posters
Posters on campus must be placed with respect to the infrastructure, building or space.
As a rule of thumb, if there are no other posters around, you should probably not put one up in that location. USASA Club posters are protected from removal only when placed on USASA marked boards.
Don't forget to take the posters down after your event!
- Poster boards - push pins only
- Walls - Blu-Tack or masking tape only (no regular sticky tape)
- Windows - Blu-Tack only
USASA Poster Boards
Only USASA posters and USASA approved posters (including USASA clubs) are allowed on these boards, meaning you won't have to fight to find space.
- USASA clubs logo (6.5MB)
- USASA stamp (you can add this to your posters at any USASA Counter)
Wording
- Must not contain offensive, discriminatory, racist or sexist language or imagery.
- Should not use the University of South Australia branding, logo or name unless you have completed the following form, submitted and received approval from the UniSA marketing department. Contact: ryan.bailey@unisa.edu.au
- Must not detract from the University of South Australia or USASA's reputation.
- Must have the USASA logo (6.5MB) included in the artwork or be stamped by USASA staff at any USASA counter.
- May include text in other languages but MUST have an English translation for ALL TEXT.
Sponsor Logos
Posters cannot promote external organisations regardless of your sponsorship relationship with the organisation. You can include their logo on your posters, except when the business conflicts with the interests of the University or USASA. If you wish to use the Univeristy's logo, you must seek permission. More information about the process can be found here.
