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.
