The Office of Strategic Communication develops and manages the university’s central social media channels and is continually on the lookout for emerging platforms, practices, and assessment strategies. Our team builds connections among social media administrators campus-wide and consults with colleges, departments, programs, and individual faculty to help advance their goals. If you are facing harassment on social media, please consult our guide on managing online harassment and contact us if you have concerns.
