Faculty Class Assignments
Marketing 3500 – 16 students assigned to attend DocUtah and do a report on at least one film more than 1 hour long.  Their reports are amazing. Some of the students had heard about DocUtah but did not know what it was about. I received some very telling feedback from the students in my class. Each had a good experience and plan to attend again next year.
Handed out Opening Event Rack Card to students.
