Reining in the outliers for a university-wide cohesive social media presence | .eduGuru - 0 views

  • I believe the central Web and/or marketing units of a university should also be the campus experts to create and maintain a strong and effective social media presence.
  • For most small- to mid-size universities, I think a tool like Facebook can be seen structurally as the university Web site. There is one main home page, otherwise known as a Fan Page on Facebook, for the university.

  • our bloggers and forums on the site
  • and try to have the conversation start on our turf, with the Bloggers answering questions
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • To date the forum has had moderate success at best. Our only promo is an email and links off the Admission page. We’ve been unsuccessful in having the Bloggers showcased on the www site or elsewhere (change = bad, I guess)
  • I created a Facebook Fan Page for them so that kids can become a Fan of the Bloggers. From there, they can ask the bloggers questions, see recent blog posts, email them, etc. This takes the conversation back to Facebook, but at least we can get some correct information out there
  • Now, this is great. Kids are connecting, and effectively yielding each other. So what’s the big problem? Incorrect information.
