Sunny skies greeted visitors to the UWindsor campus Friday for Spring Open House.
Thousands of prospective students and members of their families will visit the UWindsor campus for its Spring Open House on Friday, March 7.
More than 1500 guests pre-registered for today’s UWindsor Open House, says Zora Savic, but the campus can expect more visitors than that: “We always have students who register at the last minute.”
Student communication and events coordinator in the liaison office, she says the presentations on academic programs form the heart of the day.
“Getting a chance to meet our faculty members is a highlight for the students and their families,” Savic says. “They love to hear from professors about what to expect.”
A new online application allowing registrants of tomorrow’s UWindsor Open House to schedule their activities for the day will help them to set their own priorities, says Zora Savic.
Events coordinator in the Office of Liaison and Student Recruitment, she is “thrilled” with the program. The day is jam-packed with dozens of activities across the campus dealing with academic programs, admissions, scholarships and services.
Wearing UWindsor- and Lancer-themed clothing Friday is a good way for faculty and staff to demonstrate pride in the institution to visitors during the Fall Open House recruitment event, says Zora Savic, student communication and events coordinator for the liaison office.
She is encouraging employees to wear appropriate clothing that bears a UWindsor or Lancer logo—or even is simply blue and gold.
“Not only does it show school spirit, it also helps our visitors identify people who may be able to provide basic directions,” Savic says.
A team of UWindsor faculty, staff and students will meet with prospective students and their parents at the Ontario Universities Fair in Toronto, October 14 to 16.
“We are so proud of this excellent group,” says student communication and events coordinator Zora Savic. “They always do a great job of representing the University and telling our stories.”
