Prepare for tabling

Prepare for tabling at Week of Welcome

WoW is a great opportunity to connect with students, share information about your organization and recruit members. It helps to have a plan prior to tabling so your group can be prepared to meet with students. Here are some tips to help make your WoW experience great:

📜

Have handouts (fliers, brochures, etc.)

Giving students information they can take with them will help them stay in contact with you once they leave your table.

📱

Have a QR code

We recommend creating a QR code to be displayed at your table to lead students to your Events & Orgs page, website and/or social media. This allows students to access your information quickly and on the go.

Make sure your organization’s Events & Orgs page is fully updated

  • List your contact information
  • List your meeting times
  • Add upcoming events
  • Include your social media handles
🎉

Make it fun!

Prepare for tabling at Smorgasport

Smorgasport presents another great opportunity to connect with students on campus! In addition to tabling, organizations and departments that sign up for the event are required to have an activity for attendees to participate in. Please work with your Student Life & Development advisor to coordinate.

Marketing

Invite students to stop by your table to learn about your organization! Use your social media, newsletters and email outreach to encourage students to come see you!
