I would like to design
some graphics that demonstrate the
enrollment and retention rates of CASRN
as they relate to HLSR.
I would also like to get some close ups of
the recruitment material in the booth.
For this subject I would like to have some pictures
of prospectives and Agri-Techsans interacting at the booth
HLSR Recruitment
How it has impacted CASNR
Will ask questions pertaining to this and CASNR
more specifically when I interview Shelbey Havens.
Outside of Lubbock, Houston (or the general Harris
County region) is the leading recruitment location
for CASNR and TTU as a whole. (TTU Fact Book
2017-2018)
The experience of students recruiting students
"It's really easy for students to come up to us and say 'How are you
enjoying college? How were the dorms? Was it hard to move away from
your parents?' and that's where you can give them real insight from a
student perspective." -Kaylynn Kiker
Current students tend to be more approachable and
relatable to potential students than faculty would be.
Incoming students have the chance to have personal, one-on-one
conversations with potential students about experiences and expectations at Texas Tech.
Why CASNR does it
CASNR has the chance to reach
students that may have not
ever have gotten the chance to
about Tech/CASNR.
At HLSR CASNR is able to "show off" to students who might
be going to talk to other schools and pool them into talking to
Tech instead.
"In Houston sometimes we interact with students whoo probably
never would of thought about coming to Tech and I like that." Kaylynn Kiker
What CASNR does at the HLSR booth
CASNR sends Agri-Techsans (the official student recruiters of the college)
to HLSR to interact with prospective students and alumni one-on-one.
The booth is stocked with academic information, give outs (stickers, hats, shirts) and other TTU/CASNR related materials.
CASNR has a host of fun activities to draw students and
alumni in including: Mini golf, connect four, checkers, wii, jingo, corn hole
"It's a good attention drawer for people to come over and say hi,
because even though they may not know a lot about Texas Tech,
everybody loves corn hole." -Kaylynn Kiker
