Viewing UT.


Observations:
-It's a flag/banner.
-It says, "UT make orange Green"
-There is a website on the banner.
-The writing on the banner is sideways.
-It's location is on the walkway through the center of campus.
-The "UT" and "Green" are bigger than all of the other words on the banner.
-There is a big green leaf on the banner.

Inferences:
-The signs are on the main walkway in order to catch people's attention and to be seen by more people.
-The bright "UT" and "Green" are the two main words of the sign since they are the biggest.
-By displaying a website on the sign, they want you to visit it.
-By writing the words sideways it catches your attention and allows the words to be bigger on the sign.

Summary:
The point of the sign is to make students around campus more aware of the things which we can do to help the environment. The banner is strategically placed on the main walkway of campus to make sure the maximum amount of people can see it, since many of the UT students use the walkway to go to and from classes. The catchy slogan, "UT, make orange Green," actually brings a visual picture to your mind, causing you to think of all of the ways to make the campus eco-friendly. This is bringing awareness to the students of what they can do in order to make a difference. Although, compared to the rest of the world, UT is small, we, as a community, can make a positive impact in the way we handle environmental issues.
