How can we improve this event in the future?
1 more film
Advertised to the entire school more
Better seating and angle of screen, and probably some more individual <illegible>
Get more publicity / marketing for the event
Get more students involved
It was a small discussion group and we never looked back at the slides, so there was no need to type
It was great, just have it again every year
Maybe record so not so much time spent typing
More advertisement!
More films!
More preparedness
No, it was great!
Speak more on why stigmas occur
Typing is a little awkward even though I thought it was really nice and interactive
