If the event proves to be profitable, it will help pull the UB up the financial ladder. About $2,000 will be set aside to bring smaller bands to perform on campus. In the past, smaller band performances have led to minimal attendance mainly because students would hear about the event a couple days in advance, if that early. The remaining $1,000 will be used to finance drive-in movies. The drive-in movies are played on a large screen in the South Quad. When “Scream” and “I Know What You Did Last Summer” were played in the quad, a large turn-out made the event a suc- cess and worth the money spent on it. Why did these work? Because everyone knew about them. For the UB to become victors over lack of atten- dance, it should promote like crazy.
