Seriously(?)(!) was a campaign throughout the RISD campus to promote fiscal and environmental responsibility. Saving resources saves money. Seriously! We started a Facebook group and asked members to change their profile picture and status bar to show support. The intention was to spread a meme through an existing social networking site. We prompted group members to commit to weeklong actions that would save them money and save natural resources. For example, “I will not buy bottled water this week, seriously.” We supplied a pool of images with the Seriously(?)(!) logo set on a series of hand drawn backgrounds from group members.
