Storytelling is at our core 🎥 And marketing should = storytelling. We've helped Southern College of Optometry tell many stories through film 🎥 but I'm always proud of our work to tell the students' stories and what their journey is like. The students always come into the interview sessions a bit nervous, but they leave having told a solid story about their journey, which really connects with prospective students of the school. Prospective students don't want to hear a bunch of fluff from the staff. They want to hear honest stories from the students that are a few steps ahead of them. Embrace storytelling within your marketing, and it will do wonders, I guarantee it. ___ If you need help with content creation and storytelling, send me a DM. We can help you strategize, film, edit, and create content on a regular basis.

Inside a unique college program that is completely free ---> CBS News came and filmed our class and made a short video about Bard Microcollege! Bard Microcollege is a tuition-free liberal arts program that comes out of the Bard Prison Initiative (BPI), which has provided free high-quality college education to incarcerated people for over 25 years. BPI is an initiative of Bard College. Bard Microcollege has a broader mission - to provide access to higher education to individuals who traditionally may be left out of the university experience. It operates in coordination with the NY Public Library system. https://lnkd.in/eMpgSTgR You can read a NYTimes article below about BPI and policies around access to higher education for incarcerated people, which was even shared by Barack Obama: https://lnkd.in/euhvSBai https://lnkd.in/e5Ub34ep I've been teaching at Bard Microcollege for one semester and it's been such a pleasure because of the incredible students, faculty, and staff, and because of the strong emphasis on social justice weaved throughout the curriculum. I believe this community-based/microcollege approach can also be a helpful model for solving some of the broader issues that have emerged over the past half-century in higher education: administrative bloat, increasing tuition and student debt, exacerbating inequities in access to education, and decreasing relevance to the real lives of workers. Admissions at Bard Microcollege are open and applications are due April 15! https://lnkd.in/e-7mktu5 Spread the word!
