  6. What Are “Experts” Are Saying? • “I like this. Sweet!” - Shawn, college bound freshman and unsolicited DORMtours customer. • “While traditional means such as scholarships are still an important recruiting tool, we’re finding more and more students make living arrangements part of their criteria when choosing a college.” - W.D. Wassan, Associate Vice President Student Enrollment, University of Texas. • “Ten students more or ten students less can make the difference between a budget working or not working.” – Kathleen Dawley, President Maguire Associates. • “The last group of students I met with made a point of telling me how our dorms looked exactly as they did on the DORMtours CD we sent them. It definitely made them more comfortable which helped them choose our college. It definitely worked!” • Thanks for the DORMtours CD. They were a great addition to our package!
