New FACS Video
Students throughout Dawson may have thought they were being filmed for a new movie. They weren’t too far from the truth. Although they won’t be seen on any big screens, a new student recruitment video for FACS is now on-line and will be shown to potential students throughout Georgia in the coming months.
Connie Rash (Assistant Director of Student Services) saw the need for a video to reach potential students, their parents, and guidance counselors at recruitment fairs and school visits, as well as offering an on-line opportunity to see the college.
“It’s very important for high schoolers to hear directly from college students about their experiences,” Rash said. “Since I can’t take college students with me to every recruitment event this new video is a good way to fill that void.”
The video features Noah Spitalnick (Senior, Consumer Economics) and Katie Gaffoglio (Senior, Furnishings and Interiors) walking viewers through the halls of Dawson, describing the numerous opportunities offered at FACS. The audience learns about the 12 majors within each department along with potential careers associated with the majors. Study abroad opportunities along with other student activities are also presented. Highlights of the video are interviews with current and past students who discuss their personal experiences with the college.
The video was produced by Waco O’Guinn of DSP Productions and written by O’Guinn and Denise Horton (Director of Communications) and is posted on the college’s website.
