Student Opinion: Three Favorite Social Media Sites
YouTube
Besides the social sites listed in our survey (Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Flickr, LinkedIn, Podcast, Futura, Blogs, iTunesU, RSS, and Tumblr), 89% of the respondents said that don’t use any other social sites.
For those that do use other sites, they use foursquare.
![Page 44: @eduWeb #students #facebook #twitter #youtube #in](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052819/5462db72b1af9f71408b53bc/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
96% of students believe that institutions should be using social media
![Page 45: @eduWeb #students #facebook #twitter #youtube #in](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052819/5462db72b1af9f71408b53bc/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Reasons why…
“It’s a useful tool, we read social networking sites to find out information.”
“We use them all of the time, so it’s convenient and the information will be widely known and accessible.”
“Helps us stay connected to friends.”
“Keeps us updated on what’s going on on campus.”
“Everybody is using it, institutions would be left behind.”
“Makes the institution more connected with us.”
“It is becoming such an important aspect of communicating.”

Jennifer Tucker Assistant VP Communications Lehigh University
Social media is part of marketing and communications. We don’t treat it as a separate function.
Facebook is the #3 referral source to our website just behind search engines.
I believe in the 20/80 rule. 20% of our communications are about the institution and 80% are fun.
You have to listen to the silence.
Why do you want to be on social media? Who do you want to reach? How do you define social media success?

Tara Laskowski Social Media Coordinator Manager Media and PR George Mason University
We went from 8,000 to 24,000 in three weeks.
It’s become organic and we now get about 200 people each week.
Don’t post too much or you will be ignored.
Twitter and Facebook are different. We saw 20 comments to a Facebook post about internships within an hour and none on the same post on Twitter.
Twitter fans like event and announcement posts.
You have to be dedicated to updating the page, and you have to have good content.

Promptness is very important, even if it’s off hours.
Decide if you want your page to be open. Fans cannot post to our page but they can comment and like.
Generate discussions rather than just push out information. Write like you’re a journalist—learn to recognize a good story.

Michael O’Neill Program Administrator Office of Alumni Relations Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute
Plan? We have social media guidelines and I have an operating plan for the year.
We have over 10,000 fans in our LinkedIn alumni association group.
We discovered we have over 30,000 alumni on Twitter so we’re trying to build our presence there.
It’s best to keep an open approach to negative posts. Don’t be too big brotherish. Other alumni always step in and squash negative information.
My alumni are on during lunch so I post then.
Focus on doing a few things very well.

We have best practices but not really a plan.
We’re doing well with 13,000 Facebook fans, 7,300 Twitter followers. We follow and interact a lot.
We hold weekly meetings with web editors.
We tweet about 5 times per day during the school year.

Lisa Seaman Senior Web Editor, Online Strategy & User Experience External Relations George Washington University
A video of our president having a snowball fight got a lot of comments. We do a lot of videos.
Advice: Social media has to be informal and genuine. We don’t recommend ever removing posts that are legitimate. We do monitor spam.

George Thompson Web Content Manager Widener University
Our magazine editor and PR director coordinate efforts.
We have a content manager who focuses on Facebook, Twitter and YouTube. He has produced over 100 videos.
Different faculty and departments have established Facebook pages that we need to try to control, but that’s a nasty word.
We meet every month with alumni relations, admissions, and some academic units to communicate and collaborate with each other.

Emily Hafner Communications Associate Johns Hopkins University Carey Business School
We have a total student population of 1,630 and 1,240 Facebook fans.
We went from 330 Twitter followers to 473 in 6 months—small but totally organic.
You have to first determine your purpose and have a very clear idea of your brand. All posts should support your brand.
I’d like to have more active followers than just followers.
My goal for the sites is to provide a rich resource to interact with each other and experience the Carey mission.
Having enough time is the biggest challenge. I spend about 20–25% of my time on social media.

Social media allows for a wonderful depth of engagement with the audience.
We have a team of three student workers who follow social media sites and post.
We include social media policy in the employee handbook.

Craig Adkins Director of Web Strategy and New Media University of Redlands
Social Media is a giant black hole of misinformation.
It’s a great way to understand behavior patterns.
You need to become your own expert for your own social media needs.
We’re using this first year to learn and next year to adjust.
