Telling Your Story
Every college campus is unique, complex, and incredibly diverse. Telling the story of your institution – to prospective students, current students, alumni, faculty, parents, policy makers, community and business leaders, the media, and others – in an environment where there are so many different ways to communicate (or miscommunicate) with your audiences requires a strong message that resonates and effectively communicates about your institution. Whether it’s a Tweet, Facebook or Instagram post, letter to the campus community, presentation to your board of trustees, conversation with an elected official, or interview with a reporter, effective storytelling will ensure the message you want to get across is heard.
