Just by the numbers, George Mason University’s annual Spring Preview was a huge success, with 1,855 registered students and about 3,600 total attendees at the April 23 event.
But this preview was also about the boundaries Mason pushed, technologically and organizationally, to set up a unique event that was both virtual and personal. An online event that did its best to “open” a campus that is shut down because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
