‘Barack Obama won the presidency in a landslide victory by converting everyday people into engaged volunteers, donors and advocates through social networks, email advocacy, text messaging and online video.’

Why Our Use of Social Networks is Exploding*
They enable us to manage large extended networks more effectively
They provide information about others that serves as a ‘social lubricant,’ making it easy to interact
They give us new ways to connect with one another over shared interests, problems, or experiences, and to mobilize coordinated actions
* Nicole Ellison, Michigan State UniversityECAR Study of Undergraduate Students and Information Technology, 2008
![Page 13: How Social Networks Are Changing Academic PR, Marketing and Alumni Relations](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103016/5550a696b4c9058b208b4f58/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
In Higher Education
“Social networking sites (SNSs) like Facebook and MySpace
now constitute an integral part of the daily communications
practices for many students. For those of us in higher education,
it is particularly important to understand SNS practices, outcomes
and motivations for use because these sites are fundamentally
changing the social fabric of the university … “
Nicole EllisonMichigan State UniversityECAR Study of Undergraduate Students and Information Technology, 2008

Social Networks Are Transforming PR, Marketing and Alumni Relations Because:
They’re interactive, engaging and ‘viral’
They powerfully support ‘word of mouth’
They’re merging with conventional Web sites
They’re the future
![Page 15: How Social Networks Are Changing Academic PR, Marketing and Alumni Relations](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103016/5550a696b4c9058b208b4f58/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

What’s Your
Social Networking
Strategy?
![Page 17: How Social Networks Are Changing Academic PR, Marketing and Alumni Relations](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103016/5550a696b4c9058b208b4f58/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
At Skidmore
We see the introduction of a
Skidmore-managed social network as
our best hope for strengthening our
connections with young alumni
![Page 18: How Social Networks Are Changing Academic PR, Marketing and Alumni Relations](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103016/5550a696b4c9058b208b4f58/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Why Do We Need to?
Caller ID Screening: Annual fund callers now
must make 16 calls for every live connection
Revenues from Calls are Declining: From
$260,000 in 2005 to $110,000 in 2008
Renewed Focus on Volunteers: Personal contacts by peers are key
![Page 19: How Social Networks Are Changing Academic PR, Marketing and Alumni Relations](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103016/5550a696b4c9058b208b4f58/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
New Capabilities the New ‘Skidmore Network’ Must Offer
Enable alumni to easily network by professional groups
Enable alumni to easily network by affinity groups
Enable alumni to post electronic class notes
And…
![Page 20: How Social Networks Are Changing Academic PR, Marketing and Alumni Relations](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103016/5550a696b4c9058b208b4f58/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Alumni must be able to access the
new Skidmore Network using their
Facebook user name and password
![Page 21: How Social Networks Are Changing Academic PR, Marketing and Alumni Relations](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103016/5550a696b4c9058b208b4f58/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Why Facebook?
![Page 22: How Social Networks Are Changing Academic PR, Marketing and Alumni Relations](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103016/5550a696b4c9058b208b4f58/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
By Surveying Our Alumni, We Learned:
• Twice as many Skidmore alumni use Facebook as MySpace
• 79 percent of alumni who use Facebook say they use it daily
• The more experienced with Facebook a Skidmore alumnus/a is, the less likely he or she is to join a Skidmore-managed network
![Page 23: How Social Networks Are Changing Academic PR, Marketing and Alumni Relations](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103016/5550a696b4c9058b208b4f58/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Here’s What They’re Telling Us
‘Why reinvent the wheel? Facebook and
Linkedin are sophisticated sites with lots of
resources. Skidmore won't be able to
duplicate their service.’
‘Who needs to remember another password?’
‘You need to go where people are, not expect
them to come to you.’

What Makes Facebook So ‘Sticky’ ?

Key Goals in Skidmore Network
Create an application that enables alums in
any profession to create and maintain
profiles of themselves in a Facebook
community directly relevant to their
interests
Link these profiles to their profiles in
Skidmore’s alumni database so they can
easily update key information

Facebook Connect
will be in key in this
![Page 45: How Social Networks Are Changing Academic PR, Marketing and Alumni Relations](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103016/5550a696b4c9058b208b4f58/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Facebook Connect
‘We believe the next evolution of data portability is about much more than data. It's about giving users the ability to take their identity and friends with them around the Web, while being able to trust that their information is always up to date and always protected by their privacy settings.’
FacebookMay 9, 2008
![Page 46: How Social Networks Are Changing Academic PR, Marketing and Alumni Relations](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103016/5550a696b4c9058b208b4f58/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
How It Works
Developers may add Facebook’s ‘rich social
context’ to their own websites
Users may connect their Facebook account
to any partner website for ‘single sign-on’
Users may take their profile information
with them wherever they go on the Web
Users may take their friends with them
wherever they go on the Web
