Free Money : Week 7

i decided to go to Marston at its peek hours of study for students. im going to stop people walking into the library and present them with the a dollar. i will express that i know how stressful exams can be and just want to do my part in helping ease that stress even with as minimal a gesture as a dollar bill hopefully you can get a snack to recharge and continue studying!!

encounter 1. Emily was walking into the library i stopped her and delivered my pitch. she though it was really cool what i was doing and said th e school should have more resource to students to deal with the stress of exams. it made her feel good about studying and accepted the dollar.

encounter 2. Jordan was walking into the library with headphones. i tried to deliver my pitch and extend the dollar however he didn,t remove his headphones and simply said I'm sorry i have to study and began to walk away. i would consider this a failed attempt.

encounter 3 . Alexis was walking into the library with Starbucks in her hand i delivered my pitch and she was very receptive she said this was a very cool and kind gesture. but was already getting her pump from Starbucks to save it for someone who needed it. in this case i would say i misjudged her need.


overall i thought this was  a really cool experiment. it allowed me to see how receptive students were to the gesture. it was much easier then i thought because it was free money and for a good cause the dollar itself did all the selling for me.
