Editor's Notes
Helen, you can add notes down here that you can see. We’ve tried to keep this as clean and simple as we can, and let you talk in more detail for each slide.
Our focus was on the two weeks around Easter. Historically, this has been our busiest times of year, as they are typically when schools have their spring breaks.
Tour registration is online, with a total of 6,330 students registered.
Students came from all over the US.
Our challenge is to handle the surge with 2 full-time employees, and a lot of student help.
How did we manage the controlled chaos, with few resources?
The online parking pass generator was a big help, not only to our office, but to our visitors.
We conducted up to 5 tours at a time, crisscrossing groups through the stopping points.
We added a third tour, between the morning and afternoon tours, for accepted students. Promotion of this was only put on the accepted students web page and the tours had to be closed due to size. These tours added a few sites of interest to accepted students, as well as representatives from the five colleges to answer any questions.
Thanks to our close relationship with Alumni, both as a relationship and a location, we were able to borrow the Alumni Center lobby and accommodate the large crowds. Admissions, housing, orientation and alumni all presented to the groups.
