Buena Vista University Student Activities Board

When analyzing the assessment it is clear that we, Student Activities Board (SAB) is meeting its goal of providing diverse social and entertainment opportunities for you, the students at BVU.  Want to know how? Check out the fall semester assessment breakdown of SAB events.

1. Total number of events: 22
2. Average attendance at ALL events: 121
3. Average cost per person at ALL events: $19.50

What does all this mean?

There were 22 weeks in the spring semester and with 22 events that means there was one event a week! Still think there is nothing to do?

According to the Office of Residence Life there were 789 on campus residences in the fall of 2012.  Over 15% of the on campus population has attended a SAB event this fall.

The average cost per head, simply put, is the most useful tool for SAB to justify expensive artists and acts. Putting a cost per person model into effect helps us when planning to conceptualize our bottom line.  But most importantly, most events if not all are free to students thanks to the institutional funding to SAB.  So for all of you who attended the 22 events SAB hosted this fall you got an estimated $40,000 worth of entertainment! Yikes!

1. Total number of events: 22
2. Average attendance at ALL events: 82
3. Average cost per person at ALL events: $32.51

What does all this mean?

There were 19 weeks in the spring semester and with 22 events that means there was at least one event a week! Still think there is nothing to do?

According to the Office of Residence Life there were 716 on campus residences  in the spring of 2012.  Not factoring in our loyal  SAB attendees, who attend all SAB events, the total attendees of 82 people is 11% of the on campus population.

The average cost per head, simply put, is the most useful tool for SAB to justify expensive artists and acts. Putting a cost per person model into effect helps us when planning to conceptualize our bottom line.  But most importantly, most events if not all are free to students thanks to the institutional funding to SAB.  So for all of you who attended the 22 events SAB hosted this spring you got an estimated $25,000 worth of entertainment! Wowzers!
