Human connection drives engagement 👏👏👏

“It is time to optimize and break through the noise. Students are drowning out whatever they don’t want to hear… because students determine how, when, and where to engage.”

Excellent keynote from @CarnegieHQ’s Ben Arendt! #cuprap2022

I was just talking to a colleague about this before the #cuprap2022 conference!!

[Genna Welsh Kasun @gennawk]

Don Hale: “@cuprap is the nation’s premiere marketing and communications professional development organization.” #cuprap2022 hear hear!!

[Genna Welsh Kasun @gennawk]

Always appreciate @MarkRWeaver and today his updates on dispelling rumors with “fact points” were sooooo helpful.

[Jean CS Dolan M.A. @JeanDolan]

Great speaker today! #cuprap2022

[Genna Welsh Kasun @gennawk]

Having a committee edit a press statement means each leader will feel like they are Thomas Jefferson editing the Declaration of Independence @MarkRWeaver 🤣 #cuprap2022

Also, nix talking points for “fact points.”

[Genna Welsh Kasun @gennawk]

“Social media is not a proxy for public opinion on campus.” Says @MarkRWeaver. Watch social but measure perception other (more thorough) ways. #cuprap2022

You’re nailing this chat, @coachfern and @JosephJMaster 👏🏼

[CUPRAP @CUPRAP]

@JosephJMaster and @coachfern leading the fireside chat with NYT bestselling author @jselingo. #cuprap2022

[Tom Durso @tomdurso]

New academic programs? Marketing has to have a seat at the table from the beginning. Spot on, @jselingo. Provosts and VPs for academic affairs, are you listening? #cuprap2022

[Genna Welsh Kasun @gennawk]

“We overestimate the speed of change and underestimate the depth of change.” @jselingo of #highereducation at #cuprap2022

[Genna Welsh Kasun @gennawk]

@tomdurso @drexel_coas Great to see you and “sad, strange” is a great way to put it

[Joseph J. Master @JosephJMaster]

#CUPRAP2022 kicking off strong with a keynote by @jselingo.

And he started with 💥

"I think the time to strike ... for higher education is right now."

[Genna Welsh Kasun @gennawk]

Excited to be representing @UVA_Wise at #cuprap2022 and while listening to former @chronicle editor/now author @jselingo

[Genna Welsh Kasun @gennawk]

Thx for the great intro to #cuprap2022, @gabrielwelsch. It was fun to hear your email to your web team. You haven’t changed—grown—but you are the same and that’s a great thing!! #cuprap2022

[Joseph J. Master @JosephJMaster]

The most valuable professional development lesson I ever learned was that it's on YOU to seek out mentors — and it's a lifelong journey. @CUPRAP taught me that.
Attend the #CUPRAP2022 Spring Conference. Who knows ... you might find your next Obi Wan.
