This year we gave Gonorrhea to our OWL leaders. Last year there was an assortment of Herpes and Chlamydia. But my favorite is Syphilis, a cute pink spiral microbe. These Giant Stuffed Microbes are hilarious, rather cute, and even educational. But best of all, they fit the quirky, silly humor that I've seen in so many good OWL leaders. Isn't lightheartedness so crucial to teaching OWL? Bit of a ding at $10 each but build it into your OWL fees, it's worth it.
In addition, here's the other gift I give:
1. OWL pins - these elusive pins are still available through ShopUniUni (formerly UniUUniques) at www.shopuniuni.com/category_s/1841.htm. There are separate colors for each age level, but I had trouble keeping them straight, so now I order all blue and give them to everyone for their first year. Our leaders (25 of them!) pin them proudly on their name tags - OWL bling.
