We have collaborated with athletics so that we can host an event that allows our distance education students to actually come to campus and feel like a part of the ECU Community. They are welcomed with special recognition over the jumbotron/PA system, during one of our football, baseball, or basketball games. An email is sent out to all DE students informing them of the upcoming events to give them the opportunity to register for discounted tickets, free t-shirts, and to tailgate with the ECU alumni. We ask all the colleges/schools to participate by coming to our registration table and welcoming their students to the ECU campus. In 2007, we had over 87 DE students participate and visit our campus, and over 332 athletic tickets were sold. For 2009, we plan to host DE Day in conjunction with one of the ECU baseball games. For more information, see the DE Day webpage or contact Kim Wilson at wilsonki@ecu.edu.
