Lewis & Clark’s initiatives, including its “Inside Lewis & Clark,” one of the first communities built for admitted students and focused on optimizing yield, have won numerous awards from CASE and other organizations. Begun by Kari Chisholm and continued by Julia Duncan, the various L&C new media initiatives have consistently been cutting edge—and smart at the same time. What do I mean by that? Let’s just say that they’ve won lots of awards and have also delivered returns for the college in terms of student recruitment gains and other results.
Now’s the time for another smart, dedicated person to take L&C’s online communications to new places. Here’s the short version of the job:
Serves as primary leader for new media communications for Lewis & Clark. Directs efforts to use new media to tell the institution’s story and support its communications and marketing efforts, including the anticipated redesign of the Lewis & Clark website. Provides leadership, strategic planning, and Web development and consulting services to the entire institution. Coordinates the production and maintenance of all new media projects. Supervises staff and student workers.
Great college, great leadership, great city to live in! More complete job description here [pdf format].
Michael Stoner Co-Founder and Co-Owner Was I born a skeptic or did I become one as I watched the hypestorm gather during the dotcom years, recede, and congeal once more as we come to terms with our online, social, mobile world? Whatever. I'm not much interested in cutting edge but what actually works for real people in the real world. Does that make me a bad person?
