A Brief NSAC History 

2008-2009 marks BU's fifth entry into NSAC. In 2004-2005, the team prepared a campaign for Yahoo! and the following year for Postal Vault, a locking mailbox manufacturer. In 2006-2007, the client was Coca-Cola.  BU placed 4th in the region with a refreshing campaign.
Last year, the team came in a close 2nd place at the regional competition with a campaign for AOL Instant Messenger, helping to bridge traditional AIM with its new social media products.
