ACTUAL ATTENDANCE (# UCSD UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS) 9

IF THERE WAS A DIFFERENCE IN THE ESTIMATED AND ACTUAL ATTENDANCE NUMBERS, PLEASE EXPLAIN WHY YOU THINK THERE WAS A DIFFERENCE. HOW CAN YOU DECREASE THE DIFFERENCE IN ATTENDANCE NUMBERS FOR FUTURE EVENTS? This was our first AS-funded event so we gave a ballpark on how many people we believed would attend. In terms of funds allocated, the difference was relatively small. Still, to decrease the difference, in the future we will promote our event earlier, more often, through broader avenues, with formal marketing designs.

ACTUAL EXPENDITURE 130

DID YOU RECEIVE OUTSIDE FUNDING?

PLEASE LIST ALL SOURCES OF FUNDING ASIDE FROM A.S.

WHAT WAS THE PURPOSE OR GOAL OF THE EVENT?
To learn about the history and culture of the labor movement within a German and international context and to promote community among German speakers/German learners on campus.

DO YOU CONSIDER THE EVENT TO HAVE BEEN A SUCCESS? WHY OR WHY NOT?
Yes, it was our first funded event. We got prospective members to show up and had good discussions about the history of Tag der Arbeit.

DID ATTENDANCE DIFFER FROM WHAT WAS RECORDED ON A.S ATTENDANCE VERIFICATION? IF SO, WHY?
No.

WHAT IF ANY COMPLICATIONS AROSE DURING THE EVENT?
None arose.

WHAT STEPS OR ITEMS WOULD YOU IMPROVE FOR THE NEXT EVENT?
More aggressive promotion.

WHAT ONLINE CHANGES WOULD YOU MAKE TO ADVERTISEMENTS OR PROMOTION?
Promote earlier.

DO YOU HAVE ANY FEEDBACK FOR US ON THE A.S. FUNDING APPLICATION/PROCESS? HOW CAN WE BETTER SUPPORT YOU AND YOUR ORGANIZATION?
The funding application to invoice to TAP pipeline is a bit confusing for first time funded event planners like we were for this event. A centralized guide for planning an entire funded event (with clarification on how to fill out which forms, which meetings must be scheduled, a timeline and what you can expect) would be tremendously helpful.
