Volunteers Needed Friday for Sustainability Website Focus Group
The University Relations Digital Design and Development team is conducting a focus group for the Office for Sustainability website. A group of 5-7 volunteers is needed to participate in the focus group session to provide feedback on the ease and effectiveness of the website.
No familiarity with the website or technical knowledge is required. By participating in the focus group, volunteers will be helping the Office for Sustainability to improve its website experience for the average user. Current and incoming undergraduate students are preferred.
The session will take place at 2 p.m. Friday, Aug. 12, in the Arkansas Union computer lab (A354). Free pizza will be provided after the session. If you would like to participate, please register here.
