Ten colleges and universities who are getting creative and having fun on Twitter.

In higher education, our consumers (students) are very tech savvy and high users of social media – this is not news to anyone. What is interesting however, is how many colleges/universities haven’t quite figured out how to successfully engage students (and alums) in the medium.

I found this blog post interesting because it shows a number of institutions that are at the forefront of blending social media, their brand, humor and consumer engagement. If we could figure out a similar perfect “blend” for each of our institutions/businesses, social media might not seem so daunting!

PS –  It also didn’t hurt that my alma mater @UWMadison is listed, as well as one of our campus partners @UFlorida.  I’ve followed both for a while and already knew them to be superstars!
