KU’s one-stop shop for social media managers
Social media can add value to your communications mix in ways that other channels – like emails and display ads – cannot. Social media let us connect and engage with Jayhawks in timely, relevant ways.
A strategic social media presence reinforces our brand and its promise. It creates opportunities to help Jayhawks envision themselves at KU and to help them build relationships with the university, their peers, and the Lawrence community.
