Like most campuses built in the 1960’s, MMC (FIU’s main campus) is a closed campus, with buildings arranged in a circle of sorts, rather than sprawling out into the surrounding community. This means that to effectively reach most students at FIU with traditional campus advertising, you must maintain a presence on campus, not just in the surrounding area.
