PURPOSE by platform Twitter @CALMSU Twitter is a news platform, primarily used to share the most recent content, news, and opinions. The purpose of our Twitter page is to keep our audience current with the College. Because the life span of a tweet is on average only about 3 hours, it’s important to only post the most current information. Our main uses of Twitter should be: • Live tweeting College events • Sharing job, internship, and professional development opportunities and articles • “Day-of” reminders for College events • College-related articles and news as it happens YouTube collegeofartsletters As we grow and develop our YouTube channel, we use it as a “hub” for our short, engaging videos that we share on Facebook, Twitter, and our website. Since many of our videos will be embedded on a different platform, our YouTube channel is used as an archive for video activity, where our audience’s can experience CAL visually. Our videos will cover three main topics: The majority of the videos will be created through outside sources. Our responsibility is to post these videos to our channel. Our goal is to create video more frequently and feed our channel with content on our events, students, and accomplishments. We will aim to post one new YouTube video a month. • Event updates and livestreams • Student, faculty, or alumni features • Important spaces within CAL Version 1.2 8.5.14
