Social Media in Higher Education Summit
Tuesday, June 9, 2009
1:00 pm - 3:00 PM (Eastern)
Originating from the 2009 Penn State Web Conference
HashTag #smsummit
Come join me at this virtual summit as we explore the challenges and opportunities of social media in higher education. The format will be much different than a typical workshop. Following the principles of an unconference, we will leverage the wisdom of the crowd in an open environment where everyone's participation is encouraged.
In addition to those attending in person we will be using Adobe Connect to stream the event live and allow our virtual attendees to participate in the proceedings. The URL for the summit is http://breeze.psu.edu/psuwebsms.
Update, June 8: You will need to create a "Friends of Penn State Account" to participate. A link and instructions are available at http://breeze.psu.edu/psuwebsms.
We will will be utilizing social media to create a backchannel to let people from across the globe participate virtually. For those of you who want to participate on Twitter, delicious, Flickr, etc., the hashtag for the event is #smsummit
I have added an instance for the Social Media Summit at the Harvard’s Live Question Tool:

Please submit your questions and vote and reply to existing questions. I plan on using the information gathered to drive our live discussion on June 9.

Comment by Monty Dickerson on June 10, 2009 at 10:57am - The contribution by @bluefuego was outstanding, as was the discussion following, but due to technical difficulties the audio was very intermittent for remote participants. I'll look forward to any PowerPoint et. al. documents from the meeting! If anyone would share their notes taken from the conversations, that would be wonderful!

Hi Mark, I see this post is quite old but you seem to be the FB expert here! How do I link 'sub' pages (i.e. departmental pages) to the a 'main' University page?

I'm pretty much with Mr. Fienen on this one in that on Facebook we try to stick with the positive in order to foster marketing, admissions, etc. However in such a circumstances our official homepage usually has a message of condolence.
I pretty much control our Facebook presence mostly unilaterally for the most part. I would be of the opinion that our Facebook community is part marketing, part admission (actually, that's not really opinion, as that's who runs it). I wouldn't pos...

We recently had a discussion about posting bad news to Facebook -- specifically, after the death of a student. We've got lots of opinions on the matter, ranging from, "Say nothing/not appropriate" to "Publish an immediate condolence" to "Publish a...

Michael, can you email me at trish@providence.edu? I tried to send you a message, but it said we had to be friends first (I also sent you a friend request). Thanks!
I assume this is replacing your previous thread for the aforementioned reasons. Just shoot me a message if you want to go over anything I had mentioned earlier.
Trisha, I just dropped you a quick note. I hope it helps.

Are you still using WebAdvisor? It appears that some see the retirement of WA as a natural course of action following an upgrade to ACP (Datatel Portal).
