Social Media @ W&M

It's not all spontaneous and immediate.

The University Communications team is ready to share our best recommendations for using social media at William & Mary. SMUG meetings and emails will feature strategy, suggestions, cautions and requirements for those who represent the university on social platforms.

We manage the university's official Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Flickr accounts as well as W&M Blogs (all of which are governed by our Social Media Comment Policy).

W&M at the Moment (and in a Directory)

Social Stream is our social media aggregator of the top-level W&M social media accounts and serves as the directory of all active W&M-related accounts on campus — academic departments, programs, centers, administrative offices, libraries, museums, athletic teams and alumni groups. A directory of recognized student organizations is available separately in TribeLink.

If you run a social media channel for an official W&M-related department and don't see it listed in the directory, please let us know.
