AI Thread Summary
Project PF Proliferation offers a way to earn a free six-month gold membership by posting a flyer on a university bulletin board and sharing a photo of it. Participants can choose from three flyer designs based on their printing preferences. The initiative aims to increase awareness of Physics Forums (PF) among students, particularly those in technical and community colleges, as a valuable resource for academic support. Discussions also highlight the benefits of gold membership, such as an ad-free experience and enhanced profile features. Overall, the project encourages community engagement and support for PF's growth and sustainability.

I'm getting there slowly.

Been delayed all the time by this or that, but I am in no rush. Might even post a little more and help where I can in the mean time :)

What about for students in high school? Would I get free gold membership if I posted the flyer on the school bulletin or in my AP Physics class? :)

Is this still happening? I could easily do this because I live on a college campus.

The physics department at my college has briefly heard about this website, and most people I ask are unaware of it. You guys run an awesome site, and I'm hoping more people join as a result of this!

The department chair said I could post it, but couldn't take a picture because he had a class. I posted a piece of paper with my username instead. Hope that's alright!

The Willis Holcombe Center is located in the heart of Downtown Fort Lauderdale. Built in partnership with Florida Atlantic University, the Holcombe Center forms the Higher Education Complex on East Las Olas Boulevard. The Holcombe Center houses Broward College’s district administrative offices as well as over 210,000 square feet (20,000 m2) of high-tech classroom space consisting of wired classrooms, science and technology labs and a full array of student services.

Click on the pictures to see bigger versions.

According to the person I spoke with, on an average day during regular sessions about 8000 students pass through the halls past the various bulletin posting areas.

I'm not formally a student there. So, I might not qualify for the Gold thing. Anyway, I left them with two other fliers that they said they would put up somewhere else in the complex. I'm assuming they'll put them as close to the lab areas as possible, which I requested them to do.

There's a lot more students at BC's main campus of course, and it's next to the main campus of Nova Southeastern University. If I have the chance to get out there I'll post a few more fliers.

We are proud to present project PF Proliferation! It's a very simple way to spread the word about PF and get free gold membership for a year. What you do is print out the below PDF flyer. Post it on a university/college bulletin board or sign post (legally) and take a photo of yourself next to it. Post the photo here (add what campus) and boom, instant gold membership and you help spread the word. Now what are you waiting for!? Go Go Go! :smile:

Hello Greg :)

Sure ! on the first day of this week !

I'm poor, so I decided to take advantage of this offer so that I might once again have an avatar supporting Robot Evo for the 2035 elections.

This one is smack in the middle to the only entrance to the fourth floor of our Library, which is entirely math, physics, and quantum chem, plus it doubles as the most popular study spot. Sadly, there's no bulletin board in the building.

I also posted up a PF flyer at every outdoor study area.

I stuck up two in the creol building, but people were looking at me funny so you will have to settle for a picture of the exterior.

I'll put some up at the community college I work at on Monday.

Your first picture... Why would you place it there?
It is somewhat hard to either remove or place it there, but it is also visible. It was the second one I pasted, tinypic went wild and I put them in that order.
A friend of mine was pasting flyers about zombie apocalypse, and he asked me to put them there, just did that again.

Go, members! Spread the word and get new members. It is a favor to younger students and non-members.
