Portfolio Comments:
This is a very comprehensive overview of your many contributions to the overall project, and it
paints a good picture of your engagement and involvement. You clearly were taking an active
role in many different promotional projects, and spearheaded one yourself (ambassadors).
Your commitment to the project was evident throughout this portfolio, and I congratulate you
on a job well done.
Team Comments:
Marketing and Promotion:
The results in terms of ticket sales and awareness on campus speak for themselves, but I can
honestly say that what set your team apart this year has been the creativity you have shown.
Not satisfied with tried and true approaches to selling this conference, you searched for new

2. markets, media, and approaches to spreading the word. I firmly believe the conversation about
Emerge is much stronger this year than it has been in the past, and it is in large part due to the
efforts of your team. It wasn’t always easy, and I think you occasionally ran into
communication challenges with other Emerge task teams both inside and outside the
conference planning group, but you showed diplomacy and ended up with a solid product in
the end. I commend you for your efforts.
