To that effect... can those of you who teach games students (or other interested parties) distribute my flier to your classes? I've heard a lot of interest from students, but primarily they have been mostly male students. I would really like to get a lot of women in this class! 

Many Thanks!

Subject: Promotion of program and fall 2011 courses

Hi everyone:

At our faculty meeting on Friday we discussed several promotional ideas for our fall 2011 classes, and for the program in general. Glenn and I have assessed these options, including the idea of having some sort of student event this week or next. After looking at the timing and everyone’s crazy schedules we have determined that the best course of action for promotion is to have Glenn and I talk to classes, post posters for the special topics and new classes, highlight these classes on the homepage/website and more effectively link the content within the site. We have already implemented some of these actions and will finish up early next week. This should be in time for the students to get all the info and make decisions about fall 2011.

We will also be sending you an informational email about promoting fall classes. Please share this info with your students.

We love the idea of a student event, but just don’t think we have enough time to pull off a high-quality event in such a short time frame. Our plan is to have some sort of a fun student/faculty community event at the beginning of the school year, when everyone is fresh. If you would like to head this up and/or work on the committee please let us know.

If you have other promotional ideas, again, let us know and/or feel free to initiate a lunch to discuss it with everyone.

Thanks for your help, as always!
Peg and Glenn
