for a while now, universities have been hip to Web 2.0
marketing strategies, where social networking sites like
facebook and myspace are used (or used as models) to develop
an engaged community along with promoting institutional
branding and messaging.

not sure how successful this strategy is. here's an example
of a blog at university of dayton. can you tell it's written
by a Real Student Named Allison? about a Neighborhood? on a
University-run blogspace?

August 21 | Tough Life Lessons
I've already learned some tough life lessons this past
weekend, and classes hadn't even officially begun yet! Life
Lesson #1: Don't leave your stuff laying around. Life Lesson
#2: People are mean and steal the stuff you do leave laying
around.
That's right, at some point throughout the evening, my
wristlet (okay so guys, I'm talking about those little
wallet looking things that hang around a girls wrist, like a
purse) was swiped from my house. But in everyones defense
except my own, we did have people in our house I had never
met before, so I should have been more careful. It had my
student ID, hosue key, and digital camera in it. Dang it!
I'm sure this sounds irresponsible, but I had some really
good pictures on that camera! And it was honestly, the FIRST
time in a very long time that I had even taken my camera
with me. Go figure...
Anyways, UD was very helpful, and it hasn't turned out to
be as painful as I would have thought. I reported it with
public safety, our locks were changed and we were issued new
keys, at no cost to myself, and my student ID took about 2
minutes to get. The best part about getting the new id was
when the man asked, "Do you want this to get put on your
student account?" The answer to that question is ALWAYS a
big, loud, "YES!", because that means it gets put on the
bill, and I don't have to fork over that money right there.
Thanks mom & dad!
This week I will however be purchasing a lock for my
bedroom door, and trust me, I'm going to padlock all of my
belongings to myself from now on...
or how about this one from 'andrew':

August 26 | Cincinnati Entertainment
Now that I am living alone in Cincinnati during my co-op
this semester, I try to get around town and entertain myself
with various activities. Last week, I went to a Reds game to
cheer on my Braves that were in town. Unfortunately, I did
not bringing the visiting team any luck. However, Great
American is a fantastic ballpark to visit and watch a game
in. Although I have not been to Paul Brown Stadium, I
understand that it is also a world-class sporting venue,
perfect for the thousands of diehard Bengals fans in this city.
Working downtown, I see many activities and events being
promoted to bring interest to the city center. Besides the
growing number of bars and restaurants open at night, there
are cultural attractions such as the Cincinnati Art Museum
and the Contemporary Arts Center. There is also almost
always something going on at Fountain Square or along the
river. Next week is the world-famous Labor Day fireworks
display on the river.
