	Here at Dundee we had full co-operation of the students's union, who helped organize helpers. We also had support from Student Services who ran a Fair Trade campaign in the Library and main reception area. I have found that 'freebies' always work well with students. If you are a Fair Trade campus then as part of your Fair Trade policy you should have co-operation from your students union and senior management. Point it out to them if they won't listen. A photo shoot is also good as it is raising awareness of campaign and it's good publicity for the university.

For the fairtrade fortnight events I had to bully the union into letting us hold events, we are the only student faction really doing anything about it. Our main focus has been the people and planet fairtrade status university campaign and we've worked campaigning around that.
