“It’s unorthodox, but it’s working,” said Geoff. “This is the best idea I’ve ever had. People used our services and shopped at our retail locations around campus, but they never had any idea who we were or what we did.” Unfortunately, this new initiative has some big drawbacks for BCITSA staff. Brandy Signer, marketing associate, was recently seen leaving the SA offices with a box of her belongings.
When asked if Kat would consider spending the money at any of the BCITSA-owned coffee shops around campus, she had this to say: “Who-owned?”

Since last Monday, the Student Association has taken to the streets, handing out cash to any student that walked by.
We spoke with Kat Sukkau, local computer science student, shortly after she was given her $5 bill this Monday. “Yeah, this is awesome,” she said. “They’ve been here every week, paying for my coffee from Timmies.”

“We’re proud to say we’re finally making some progress with students,” said the Director of Marketing and Communications, Geoff Gauthier, in a recent interview. “Our rate of student involvement has never reached anything higher than six percent. That was a good year,” he told us nostalgically.
"Honestly, it was brutal," Signer told us. “The day that the ‘We Exist’ Campaign began, they came into the marketing office with a big wheel with a bunch of names on it. They said that if we downsized by one employee, we could hand out 10,000 more $5.00 bills a year. I had to spin it."
