The Problem
Not knowing where anything is as a fresher. How To... Avoid getting lost.

The Evidence
Personal experience.. not knowing where certain usefull places are such as closest supermarket, cash point etc.

We Intend to...
Design and create a map that can be personalised to where the student is living, this will be focused around the main halls of residents for first years. The map will highlight usefull places for freshers, quickest routes to the college and information on things such as club nights and taxi numbers. Also create a series of posters and possibly merchandise promoting the map, using the 'Where's my milk?' theme and tagline.
