1. There should be a standard procedure for sending a thank you to each speaker during the week after they've visited us. Should the email come from the hosts, the dept head/directors, or via the organizers on behalf of all?
2. Distribute a Powerpoint slide or PDF with the seminar info (title, date, location, image) with the abstract and a speaker bio to the interested faculty for announcing in their classes that week.
3. If individuals or other organizations ask to co-sponsor a seminar, they should be asked to provide half the cost of the event and fifteen hours of effort towards it.
