“The Use of Social Media in Higher Education for Marketing and Communications: A Guide for Professionals in Higher Education”
According to the article from lesson 5, this is a article about summarising the “The Use of Social Media in Higher Education for Marketing and Communications: A Guide for Professionals in Higher Education”.
Social networking is the use of internet-based social media programs to make connections with friends, family, classmates, customers and clients. Social networking can occur for social purposes, business purposes or both through sites such as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Classmates.com and Yelp. Today’s students are accessing those social networking to connect and share with those around them. One of the most interesting things about social media is that users can interact and engage with each other solely through a Web presence, perhaps never even meeting in person.
Whether they are sharing personal pictures, links to other sites or even commenting on someone’s post, students engage, stretching beyond social interaction purposes alone. Students use social media day in and day out to interact with their peers and even teachers about class-related subjects. In a world where online engagement is important for businesses, these students are becoming experts at developing a sense of Internet presence. Not only do they know how to interact with others on the internet, they know how to use basic and even complex functions in order to do so.
Facebook: a social networking website and service where users can post comments, share photographs and links to news or other interesting content on the Web, play games, chat live, and even stream live video. Shared content can be made publicly accessible, or it can be shared only among a select group of friends or family, or with a single person.
Access website: https://www.facebook.com/
MySpace: a place where you can create a profile page that you can use to meet new friends. MySpace has a lot more to offer than that, though. Find out what you can do with MySpace. There is a blog on MySpace. The MySpace blog is a great place to tell your profile's readers about you and your life. Photos can be posted on your blog and the blog can be customized to look the way you want it to look. Find the music you like and put it right on your MySpace profile, free. You can search for music or you can browse by genre. Then you can add music to your MySpace profile.

YouTube: a free video sharing website that makes it easy to watch online videos. You can even create and upload your own videos to share with others. Originally created in 2005, YouTube is now one of the most popular sites on the Web, with visitors watching around 6 billion hours of video every month.

Flickr: is a photo sharing platform and social network where users upload photos for others to see. Users create a free account and upload their own photos (and videos) to share with friends and followers online. It's more focused on the art of photography than any other major social network out there. Think of it as Instagram for professional photographers.

Blog: A blog is a frequently updated online personal journal or diary. It is a place to express yourself to the world. A place to share your thoughts and your passions. Really, it’s anything you want it to be. For our purposes we’ll say that a blog is your own website that you are going to update on an ongoing basis. Blog is a short form for the word weblog and the two words are used interchangeably.

Twitter: Twitter is very simple to use as broadcaster or receiver. You join with a free account and Twitter name. Then you send broadcasts daily, or even hourly. Go to the 'What's Happening' box, type 280 characters or less, and click 'Tweet'. You will most likely include some kind of hyperlink. To receive Twitter feeds, you simply find someone interesting (celebrities included), and 'follow' them to subscribe to their tweet microblogs. Once a person becomes uninteresting to you, you simply 'unfollow' them. You then choose to read your daily Twitter feeds through any of various Twitter readers.

Disadvantages of Social Networking
1. Loss of control
2. Time commitment
3. Information overload
4. Anyone can create an “official” account for your university
RECOMMENDATIONS & CONSIDERATIONS
Social media offers advancement professionals a great opportunity for keeping in touch with alumni after they graduate. Social networking can be a great resource for recruitment efforts, and could be very beneficial to your program. However, they still believe the majority of your focus should be strengthening the experience perspective students have on your official Web site. Social media gives us the opportunity to humanize stories of students and alumni of our institutions, which can create loyalty and earn future business (students),and ultimately their respect.
