SUA demolishes printer, fax to publicize 'Office Space'

A sledge hammer. Four tall orange construction cones. Rap music playing in the background. Students smashing something wrapped in clear, plastic tarping.
Student Union Activities staged a re-creation of a scene from the movie Office Space yesterday to promote the showing of the movie tomorrow night.
"We're trying to recreate the copier smashing scene from the movie," said Lauren Stewart, SUA vice president for University Relations and Wichita sophomore. "It gives us all a chance to live vicariously through the movie and have a good time."
Students looked on as SUA officers took shots at a printer. They eventually broke through the plastic protecting, and pieces scattered across the sidewalk.
"I think it's a really great way to
promote the movie" said Steven Adkins, Olathe freshman. "It's really cool. I've always wanted to do that to my computer."
The printer smashed yesterday and the fax machine planned for tomorrow were old SUA office products, Stewart said.
"I really like the people walking past and asking, 'What's going on?'" said Isaac Dill, SUA Spectrum Films coordinator. "Their next question is, 'What are you doing it for?' It's a great way to advertise the movie."
Office Depot representatives were on hand to hand-out office supplies to students walking past. The store at 2525 Iowa St., is a sponsor of the movie's showing. It donated red Swingline staplers like the ones used in the movie.
"We're having a really positive response from students," said Nathan Haley, the customer service manager at Office Depot. "Everyone keeps saying, 'Cool, free stuff!'"
"I really like the people walking past and asking, 'What's going on?' Their next question is, What are you doing it for?' It's a great way to advertise the movie."

SUA and Office Depot will be back on Wescoe at noon tomorrow to smash more equipment and promote the movie further.
The film will be shown at 7 p.m. tomorrow at Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union. Tickets are $2. Before the film's showing there will be a character impressions contest and door prizes will be raffled. The red stamper will be handed out as prizes at the show.
