 **Who**: Faculty, Students, Staff, Alumni, and Community Members **What to Ask**: Ask people if they would sign a petition to [|Support] or [|not support] a Student-Run Co-op. Make sure to equally offer petitions for and against. When against, try to figure out why. Survey both. We want the Co-op to represent those for and against and to meet the needs of those against. **Ways to Petition**: c Get your friends c Talk for 30 seconds in front of your classes and get everyone to sign a petition. c Stand in front of the dining halls. c Red Square c Walk around town c Post the petition at your work. c Walk through the VU, the Rec Center, buildings, etc...  c  Carpe Diem. Use your creativity. **Keep track of your Petitions**: Signed but not returned Petitions mean we lose out. c<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal"> Get Group Outreach form filled in by any clubs, committees, hall councils, or campus entities you can. c<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal"> Post the info on the Wiki under partners. c<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal"> <span style="font-family: 'Times-Roman','serif'">Survey: Have them fill it out. c<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal"> <span style="font-family: 'Times-Roman','serif'">Petition for or against. c<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal"> <span style="font-family: 'Times-Roman','serif'">Fill out Faculty Sheet c<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal"> Can you speak shortly in front of their class?
