At this time, we are not hosting the 2024 #RedbirdProud Social Media Awards and Workshop. We are working on alternative ways to recognize our campus communicators and offer training opportunities.
University Marketing and Communications recognizes the best uses of social media on the Illinois State campus at the annual #RedbirdProud Social Media Awards and Workshop. The program honors faculty, staff, and students who manage social media accounts for the University and offers units presentations on ways to improve their social media marketing.
The awards recognize outstanding social media efforts during both the fall and spring semesters. Nominations (including self-nominations) are accepted in four categories:
- Best overall use of social media
- Most innovative use of social media
- Best new/most improved social media
- Outstanding student social media manager
