Social Media

Contact Trent Lesikar with any questions. 

Maintain a professional tone but always consider your audience and adjust accordingly. Read the UGS Twitter account to get a good idea for an appropriate student-friendly and professional tone. 

The communications team monitors the various social media accounts across UGS. If an account is not properly maintained, you may be contacted to discontinue the account or rethink your social media strategy. Please consult the UGS Style Guide for best practices when writing for the web.

Twitter

The communications team manages the School of Undergraduate Studies and Wayfinder Twitter accounts. Our design team can create profile pictures and banner images. Submit a design request if you're starting a new Twitter account and are in need of materials. If you have questions about starting or maintaining a Twitter account, email the communications team.

Facebook

The communications team manages the School of Undergraduate Studies, Sanger Learning Center, Freshman Reading Round-Up, and Wayfinder Facebook accounts. Submit a design request if you would like our team to create shareable graphics, cover photos, or profile pictures for your program's Facebook account. Facebook accounts tend to have lower engagement than other social media channels. Posts with a photo gallery from an event or congratulatory messages for students/staff/faculty winning an award are best for Facebook. If you have questions about starting or maintaining a Facebook account, email the communications team.

UGS has several newsletters that are sent to various audiences via email. These include:

• BDP newsletter (one to two times each semester, sent to BDP alumni and current BDP students)
