Official UST Online Social Networking Guidelines
The University of St. Thomas, in its commitment to building a responsible and respectful community, has expanded Communications to include social networks. All individuals professionally associated with the University with access to the officially-sanctioned social networks are expected to exhibit honesty, respect and integrity for the rights and property of individuals and organizations within the social structure.
The Social Media Guidelines apply to the University’s presence on:
- Facebook
- Twitter
- YouTube
- LinkedIn
- Web videos
- Online and social media advertising
- All other social media
These guidelines may be frequently updated in keeping with the continuous changes made by social networks. Please send suggestions or questions to the Social Media Specialist in the Office of Marketing Communications at SocialMedia@stthom.edu.
University departments and organizations wishing to launch social media accounts should first discuss it with Ronnie Piper at 713-525-3114. Each account must be registered with the Marketing Communications office through an online social media registration form and must follow the social media guidelines defined on this site.
