Subject: [Workshops] Social media webinars 6/29 and 7/15 at PSB

Dear colleagues,

The Publishing Services Bureau invites you to join us at two webinars  
on social media. Since many of you are already employing social media  
as part of your communications efforts, we hope these webinars can  
offer useful tips to help you in your work.

Starting a Social Media Policy
Tuesday, June 29
1-2:30 p.m.
PSB, Building E38-254
No registration required

Overview: As colleges and universities increasingly use social media,  
they often struggle with how to craft a workable policy. Without a  
unified approach, the institutional message or brand can get lost,  
diluted or misused. This webinar, sponsored by Academic Impressions,  
will cover why a social media policy is critical; what content,  
privacy, freedom of expression and legal issues should be considered;  
how to manage your presence; who should be in charge of your policy  
and why; effective strategies for assessing your policy once it is  
implemented; and successful policies at other institutions.

For more details, visit http://www.academicimpressions.com/events/ 
event_listing.php?i=936. PSB has already registered for the group.

Social Media Practices of Young Adults
Thursday, July 15
1-2 p.m.
PSB, Building E38-254
No registration required

Overview: Many young adults have incorporated email, Facebook and  
text messaging into their daily practices, both professionally and  
personally. This webinar, sponsored by Higher Ed Experts, will  
examine different social media practices common among young adults  
and help you understand the cultural logic behind these practices.  
Special attention will be given to the challenges colleges and  
universities face whey trying to connect with students and young alumni.

For more details, visit http://higheredexperts.com/edu/webinar/master- 
class-social-media-practices/. PSB has already registered for the group.

We look forward to seeing you at these events.
