Past Events
Holiday Party
|
The speakers at the holiday party were apparently very good, but went on for a little too long.
|
Perhaps have only one speaker in the future, since two seemed long or 8-minute limit total for each speaker.
|
|
Professor Carter Lecture
|
Thirteen people attended the Professor Carter lecture. It was a great lecture and we discussed how we could get higher attendance levels.
|
For the lectures, maybe charge $$ for events to lock in more members, make them RSVP, create a phone tree calling people to promote, and email the Ivy Plus list (for lectures only). Perhaps set up a committee of three people in charge of getting attendance levels up. Gail will spearhead getting RSVP’s for future events.
