Conduct tests on all audio/visual equipment to make sure everything is in proper working order.
Make sure that when your event begins, you are ready to greet people attending and make everyone comfortable. Please pay particular attention to invited guests. Sometimes, non-students can feel a little self conscious about attending an event sponsored by student organizations, so please take the initiative to introduce yourself and encourage others in your group to create a welcoming environment.
While the event is going on, make sure everyone stays on schedule.
Keep a record of how many people attend your event.
Also, take the time to enjoy yourself and take pride in what you have accomplished.
After the event concludes, please make sure someone from your organization stays until everyone attending the event has left the venue.
