The lack of awareness that a football team exists at the university is the primary problem, and this marketing plan will address it using multiple marketing strategies. The specific goals for this marketing plan are as follows: ● The attendance at home football games will increase as a result of greater awareness within the university community. Incentives will be established that will encourage students to come to the games. ● The financial resources available to the team will increase as a result of an improved relationship and dialogue with football alums, both new and old. These resources will be utilized to improve the image of the team both in the minds of the target market, and the physical image of what is seen on the football field. ● Merchandise will be produced at a low cost from a local vendor and sold on campus, on the team website, and at the games. This will help to spread awareness for the team by making the team more visible around the community. ● This marketing plan will utilize the team website as a promotional tool in order to maintain a strong relationship with the fan base, alumni, and also to encourage students from Vermont High Schools to join the team.

  • HARVARD UNIVERSITY 2019–20 Board of Overseers Listed Alphabetically with Final Year of Service Noted Current As of 1/1/20
    Report to the Harvard Governing Boards on Aspects of the Board of Overseers Susan L. Carney Paul L. Choi Margaret H. Marshall (chair) Walter H. Morris Jr. Tracy P. Palandjian Margaret M. Wang July 31, 2020 Report to the Harvard Governing Boards on Aspects of the Board of Overseers I. INTRODUCTION In its long history, Harvard’s Board of Overseers, in common with governing boards of other private colleges and universities, has from time to time reviewed facets of its work to consider whether changes may be warranted. Of particular relevance to this report, since 2015-16 the Board has maintained an elections working group to address issues related to the annual elections for its members. The group’s work has led to various changes in how the Overseers elections are conducted, including the introduction of an online voting option in 2019 and other reforms. Earlier this year, Harvard’s governing boards formed this special committee to consider additional matters related to the annual elections for Overseers. Since being convened, and as requested, our committee has worked intensively to consider a range of topics including aspects of the process for nominating candidates for Overseer, issues of campaigning related to those elections, and opportunities for the Board to benefit more from the perspectives of recent graduates of Harvard College and the University’s graduate and professional schools. Our work has been informed by the prior efforts of the Board’s elections working group, whose current chair is a member of this committee. We now submit this report, including our observations and recommendations, in the hope that it will provide helpful information to the governing boards and lead to constructive changes.
