Help me rid the campus of illegal business flyers!!

This applies to both campuses equally as well.

Anyone who spends any time reading the message boards has surely come across the "Earn $2000 a month, part time" messages or the "Management positions available" and similiar messages. I know from a friend's experience that most of these companies are purposely deceptive in trying to lure students to their business and exploting them for their own benefit.

If the company name is not on the form, it's got a bad image. If the company name is on the page, avoid "Vector" (Knives) and "herbalife" (please post comments and add more if you know of other similiar companies.) Both companies are notorious for commission based sales jobs where you NEED TO PAY for training and motivational courses.

These companies and others will continue to post on our campus as long as it remains profitable, so the best way to stop these posters and the exploitation of other fellow students is by taking these signs down. I've already started doing it, but I can't do it alone, please help put an end to these flyers by taking them down whenever you see them and encouraging your friends to do the same.

Note: Do not take anything down that has a university approved stamp, and try to only target BUSINESS postings not "selling math 105 textbook for $35" postings.
