Open Day - Thank You and Staff Draw
Thank you to all staff who worked at Open Day on Saturday. This event is an important one in Macquarie's student recruitment calendar, and your dedication, enthusiasm and support is crucial to make the day a success and we really appreciate you giving up part of your weekend to support the University on Saturday. We could not have asked for better weather and the crowds were consistently large all day right across the campus. So far, the online Open Day survey is showing that 79% of those who attended Open Day on Saturday are more interested in studying here as a result.
As always, we will be collecting staff feedback on their Open Day experiences in order to make improvements for next year's event. We will work with Divisional and Departmental organisers to collect this feedback, but if you have anything you particularly wish to draw our attention to please contact me directly.
My email address is kathy.vozella@mq.edu.au or phone x7378.
For those who missed out on putting their business cards in the Staff Draw box on the day, please email me your name and contact details by close of business Wednesday 17 September, and we will draw prize winners and announce them in Thursday's MQ Announcements.
