The first 25 participants who arrive at the event will receive gift bags with products students have developed over the semester pertaining to a specific social issue. One of the issues explored in the class was the disease of addiction and the public's current perception of the disease. In order to attempt to find out people's thoughts on the disease, and to give information about the disease, two products were created. The first is a set of printed napkins which state myths about the disease. The napkins were distributed throughout a bar to test people's reactions to the information. The second is a sticker which lists the blogspot (www.addictiondisease.blogspot.com) where more information about addiction can be reached. Both these items will be included in the Give it Up. Make it Up. Swap it Up. gift bag.
