IAB MACRAO Participation• We participated again this year in the 2009 Fall
MACRAO events.• MACRAO calendar was updated in mid-summer.• LSSU Admissions office and the IAB are working
very well together.• LSSU Admissions counselors continue to be
appreciative of our participation and especially the NEW Recruiting/Press Kit.

Thoughts/Sharing• MACRAO events are well organized and the
students and parents look forward to attending these events to help in deciding career and education choices.
• MACRAO events were again focused regionally this year.
• Our Recruiting/Press Kit is a HUGE SUCCESS!

![Page 14: Lake Superior State University Industrial Advisory Board Meeting](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022051620/56812f85550346895d9504bc/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Thoughts/Sharing
• The Recruiting/Press kits were completed and distributed to the Admissions people in time for the Fall 2009 recruiting season.
• At MACRAO events, do we see having an additional LSSU table for Engineering and Technology as mission critical, important, or nice to have?
• If we had a separate table would we also need a separate table cover with LSSU logo and Engineering and Technology?

![Page 15: Lake Superior State University Industrial Advisory Board Meeting](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022051620/56812f85550346895d9504bc/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Thoughts/Sharing• What about having the Recruiting/Press kit on
line in PDF format via the Engineering and Technology website?
• What about having the Recruiting/Press kit on a CD to hand out at the MACRAO events?
• Support in the Chicago area with George Bielis is an example of supporting Admissions and the IAB outside of Michigan.

Thoughts/Sharing• LSSU is still a major UNKNOWN in the field of
engineering and technology.• IAB participation in MACRAO events is a very
UNIQUE and POSITIVE INFLUENCE on student choice.
• Can we INCREASE the number of IAB members who participate in these events for the Fall of 2010?

…in closing• We all enjoy supporting these events, it is a
rewarding experience to be able to provide information that may be used in a student’s decision making process for their educational and career choices.
• The Spring 2010 MACRAO events are coming up after the beginning of the new year, I will again post an email soliciting your support.

THANK YOU• A special THANK YOU to all of the IAB membership
that submitted key information for the Recruiting/Press Kit.
• A special THANK YOU to all of the IAB membership that supported the Fall 2009 MACRAO events. Your support is greatly appreciated and I hope that we can have more of the membership participate in future events.
• You can make a difference in the lives of young people as they make their education and career choices.
