I agree. We started sending out Thanksgiving and Christmas cards last year. It was my first time, but I did exactly what you said. For Thanksgiving, I created the page: http://www.st-aug.edu/thanksgiving.htm and for Christmas I created another pag...
This is the first time we've done a flash-based greeting, so I appreciate the advice.
Thanks for your help.
Agreed, do not embed the Flash in the email, you will not get the results you want at all because there is no way to control or predict just how all the different email platforms will interpret it, not to mention it getting filtered, tagged, or bl...
I agree with Nathan - you do not want flash in your HTML email. You can have the HTML email look like the start of a movie.. or whatever graphics you want in there.. but when clicked - the user should be taken to a web site where a full web browse...
How are you looking to point users to the Flash file? I don't know the most recent stats on Flash visibility through email clients but I remember in the past the argument was against sending a pure Flash file through email. Instead the suggestion ...
We're planning on sending out a Flash-based Christrmas greeting via email. I'm wondering what maximum file size we should be aiming for. (i.e.
Hi Mark,
There's a fairly comprehensive list of Facebook and other social network sites for Higher Ed institutions at EduStyle:

I was adding content the day the change happened, which is how I found out. Didn't know about it beforehand. Can't say I'm crazy about the new look, but I do like that updates to Pages are now being streamed to Fan's feeds. I'm hoping that once th...

Take a look at what we're doing over at nuCloud for folks. Got Belmont, USC Upstate, and soon Anderson launched on our interactive map platform. It's basically designed to be cheap and easy with very fast turnaround. Fire off an email to info (at)...
Wondering if anyone can share anything about using external parties to produce a virtual campus tour? I'm looking for costs and issues -- what're the benefits of going external vs trying to produce inhouse? What are the drawbacks?
Many thanks for ...
Share your experiences using OmniUpdate CMS
Thanks for the news! And thanks to both Terry and Mark for making this possible.
Hello,
I'm the webmaster for a community college who is responsible for managing, maintaining and developing our institutional website. We currently have 65+ staff who update content on sections of our website using Adobe Contribute.
I've been t...
We've been running the ActiveCampus portal for just over a year now. Please let me know if you have any specific questions and I'll try to answer them for you.
Thanks, Michael.
Ah, well that makes a pretty big difference. Then I'd say probably about a 15% increase in salary or $7500, whichever is more, unless they're making a pretty big jump up the ladder for it.
We recently decided on Drupal and purchased support from Acquia Drupal. We've been pretty happy with them so far. Great response times and access to free webinars that have been pretty helpful.
There's no real "professional organization" per se yet. The HighEdWeb group had been working on something like that though, but I'm not sure where they are at in that process.
As for conferences, I'd generally recommend HighEdWeb and EDUWeb.
Mark can I also jump on the wave. dladner@nctc.edu
Thanks
As I am new to the higher ed community, I was wondering if as a professional group do we have a professional type organization?
Secondly, is there some type of annual conference for higher ed web developers/designers, where we can get together an...
Excellent! I too look forward to watching the site continue to grow and evolve.. I personally have this site listed as my main contact site than the others. I post and read on almost daily. When compared to the other sites that I look at once a we...
Thank you so much, Michael. That's great information. We already have an internal candidate in mind, so relocating, etc. aren't issues. This person has the required education and experience. With that in mind, what would you say would be fair? Tha...
Ken, actually just got through looking at both CMS. I demoed Cascade Server and then Omni Update all in the same day. I do not think that you could go wrong with either of the systems. I loved both of them. Both are excellent CMS. But after the da...
Without looking in to the cost of living up the Rhode Island way, if I were looking at it I wouldn't even apply for less than $70K (but I figure in a cost of living increase, plus moving costs, etc. I'm greedy, but I also wouldn't move across the ...
Hi!
Thanks. This is Providence College, a liberal arts college with an undergraduate enrollment of approx. 3,8000. The education is bachelor's degree and 7+ years' experience are required. I'm not sure about the budget. This person will manage on...
One, where is this at?
Two, define appropriate. There's "higher ed" appropriate and "competitive" appropriate.
Three, how many people is the position in charge of?
Hello, everyone!
I'd greatly appreciate your input. I work in Web Communications and have been tasked with researching an appropriate salary for a Director of Web Communications Services.
This is the position profile:
