Advertising students offer campaign event today

A UNL advertising campaigns class will host an interactive Honda Civic Coupe event on the Nebraska Union Plaza, 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., April 12.

“See the _____ You,” will allow participants to explore new technology and features available on the car.

As part of the event, participants will have the opportunity to have a “celebrity” photo taken on a red carpet. The photos will be submitted to Facebook, where they will be voted on for "Best Picture." The best photo winner will receive a gift card with all participants receiving giveaways.

The Honda Civic Coupe Marketing department and EdVenture Partners sponsor the competition.

The project allows advertising and public relations students in the College of Journalism and Mass Communications the opportunity to create real-world integrated marketing communications plans.

Twenty other schools across the country are competing with UNL for the right to present ideas to Honda executives at the end of the semester.
