    Abstract
    Abstract The purpose of this synthesis was to examine social media use in intercollegiate athletic departments, and the effect that social media has on colleges and student-athletes. Previous research shows that social media has not been a large presence in intercollegiate athletics until 2008 when schools started to realize that is can be a powerful tool to help with marketing strategies. Common themes that emerged through the critical mass were social media best practices at the intercollegiate level, the most commonly used platforms, the benefits of using social media for colleges and student-athletes, and the problems and potential problems of using social media for colleges and student-athletes. Future research is needed to address the everchanging field of social media as the technology grows each year and new applications are formulated to increase the presence social media has on society and intercollegiate athletics.

      Measuring the incessant need of Social Media as a marketing and communication tool in a small camp business.

      Brown, Darilyn (2014-12-01)
      This project was created to examine Facebook, Twitter, and Constant Contact as a communication and marketing tool in a small camp business. Upon revealing how the three tools contribute to the businesses marketing and communication efforts, a social media strategy plan will be created based on the results. As social media and email marketing are said to have many effects on a company, primarily positive and beneficial, this research takes an unbiased approach to how it contributes to the business’ marketing and communication efforts. The Human Centered Design and Social Presence Theory will be used to help illustrate how my proposed social media strategy can be implemented to create an optimal user experience. Qualitative methods will also be utilized in the research and review of the business’ online marketing and communication activity. The overall goal of the project is to review how Facebook, Twitter, and Constant Contact on tribute to a business, how the business utilizes the platforms it is provided, and finally how these platforms can/should be used by creating a proposed social media strategy.

      Media and Social Media Best Practices for Feminist Activist Groups and Organizations

      Rozelle, Arien; St. John Fisher College (2019-11-20)
      Feminist organizations and activist groups from the Women’s Suffrage movement to the Women’s March have utilized media relations tactics and techniques to share organizational messages. Over time, the art of media relations has evolved from a tactical role to a strategic necessity, one that is vital to the success of any activist organization or group as they seek to inform, educate and/or persuade their intended audience through the use of media and social media. This essay identifies best practices for feminist activist groups and organizations to help begin or improve their media relations efforts, ranging from initial hiring, to media relations planning and social media strategy.

      “The Most Anxious Generation”: the relationship between Gen Z students, social media, and anxiety

      Vultaggio, Gabrielle (2021-05)
      This proposed study explores the relationship between Gen Z students and anxiety. The primary research of this study is based off of four interviews with current Gen Z college students, as well data collected from peer reviewed studies, government data and statistics. This study has revealed that a post-graduation fear of the unknown plays a large role in the upwards trend of anxiety disorders among Gen Z college students. This is heavily influenced by the increasing use of technology and the effects of social media, like FOMO, pressures of social comparison, and the immediacy of results. School, politics, school shootings, and financial worries are also deciding factors of mental health issues among this age group.
