SURVEY RESULTS
Thank you for taking the time to give detailed responses and great suggestions in the
Career Resources InCYde Influencers survey!

WHAT WE’LL WORK ON
 A webinar length of 45 minutes or less and being consistent with offering a webinar
  each quarter unless there is a specific series being promoted.
 Releasing info sheets in the months between the quarterly webinars, as these were
  preferred over webinars.
 No one was familiar with the career question drop box, so we’ll work with the
  communications team to promote this opportunity and create more consistency with
  timing and responses.

FREQUENT TOPICS OF INTEREST
 Personal branding, especially with Instagram
 Getting involved with ISU, boards of directors, and your community
 Networking
 Navigating through COVID

(ICYMI) IN CASE YOU MISSED IT
                            Thanks to your suggestions, we published a Cyclone
                           Story on Anthony Maly (‘11 political science), senior program
                           manager for the Office of Student Involvement at the University
                           of Missouri-Kansas City (UMKC). Check out the story here.

                           Do you know a Cyclone who would make a great contact for
                           a Cyclone Story? Tell us about them! E-mail Kate Tindall at
                           ktindall@iastate.edu.

 Cyclones sure have a sweet tooth... 251 boxes of chocolates sold to alumni and friends
  in 20 states for our virtual chocolate tasting event with Chocolaterie Stam!

 We had another successful Bingo Battle event with over 280
  people playing! Five winners were shipped a dozen cookies
  courtesy of Cookies, Etc.

 More than 12,000 people viewed our virtual Homecoming
  events throughout the week!

 We modified our Find the Wine in the Corn Maze event
  (held in the Des Moines area) this year and we were still able to collaborate with two
  Cyclone-owned local businesses.

A NEW CARDINAL & BOLD GALA
The Cardinal and BOLD Mask-erade will be like no
gala before. In place of the in-person gala normally
held in Des Moines, the ISUAA is planning virtual
activities and events throughout the week of Feb.
8-16, 2021, with a short virtual event the night
of Feb. 12. There will be BOLD mask decorating
contests and giveaways. A virtual format ensures
Cyclones everywhere can celebrate and raise
critical funds for students and alumni programming
while practicing Cyclones Care physical distancing.
Debuting this year: Our ever-popular paddle raise
and auction will become one mega event this year!
Each giving level will come with a unique gift – from a Beat Iowa cocktail party to a Zoom
call with Jeff Johnson. And every gift over $250 will receive two limited edition 2021 Gala
glasses.
