  •   The College Promo is debuting now!  This year we will not send a physical CD to each Unit.  Instead we have a number of viewing options.  You can:

View the Promo on-line from your computer by clicking here.

Download a CD file to burn and show at your meeting by clicking here and copying ALL of those files to a new folder on your hard disk.  Use that file to make a CD using your software, and you can show the presentation even if you don't have MS PowerPoint.

Download a much smaller printer-friendly script to either read yourself or read along with the presentation.  You can save or open this file when asked.  It is small, but requires Adobe Acrobat to read.

If you just want to download the presentation as a PowerPoint file that you can edit, use this link. When asked, you can save it to your hard drive (this is a large file, and may take a long while to download) or click open to view it in your browser and shorten the download time.  BUT if you just want to watch it on your computer the "View the Promo on-line from your computer" link above is absolutely your best option.
