MATC hosted its annual Open House on November 8 at the Milwaukee Campus. Over 1,300 attendees were exposed to 108 program offerings through video presentations, demonstrations and tours. The Open House provides a chance for new and prospective students to get exposure to the programs offered at all campuses as well as field any questions they may have.
Upon arriving, attendees were given an overview of the MATC programs through a multimedia presentation in the S building conference area.
Displays included materials used in classes and printed information about each program. Culinary Arts students and instructors provided demonstrations on the 6th floor of the Main Building as well.
Co-chaired by MATC staff members Brunetta Soward and John Lopez, the Open House was staffed by over 270 volunteers, including 50 students who worked as tour guides.
Many attendees responded with excitement to what was presented, and 431 new applications were received.
