KU’s one-stop shop for social media managers
Social media can add value to your communications mix in ways that other channels, such as emails and display ads, cannot. These accounts allow us to meet Jayhawks where they are, on the platforms they use every day, to connect and engage in timely, relevant ways.
A strategic social media presence reinforces our brand and its promise. It creates opportunities to showcase excellence in research and teaching and demonstrate service to Kansans while uniting us as One KU.
It is important that all KU-affiliated social media accounts align with KU branding guidelines to ensure a consistent One KU representation of the university. Adhering to the guidelines and best practices outlined on our brand site will strengthen brand recognition, build trust with our audiences, and create a unified One KU voice and visual identity. This alignment allows us to effectively communicate KU’s values and key messaging.
