Social Media Post of the Week

#OurNewBison

My favorite social media post this week goes to Howard University and the unveiling of a new logo.  

The posts were simple. The logo and the words, "Better. Bolder. Bluer #OurNewBison" posted across platforms for Facebook, Linkedin, Twitter and the website hit in unison.  The Bison Alumni Nation rose in support and my FB feed was filled with celebration. I stood a little taller, felt pride and appreciation for the response to my Alma mater's news. 

I'm so proud that I went to Howard University(HU).  It would take up too much of this blog to tell it all. I owe a debt of gratitude to HU, I learned so much in those undergraduate years, most importantly what it meant to be 'young, black and gifted.' It was sitting under professors like Offield Dukes, a public relations visionary and pioneer, and Barbara Hines, an awesome mentor,  that I accepted the responsibility of the gifts God gave.  

I know it was a long time ago, but I still have that Bison Pride.  I am looking forward to being a Lancer and contributing the best I have to my new university and to feeling the Lancer pride based on the work I am doing now to earn a Masters in Public Relations. But for today, My HU gets the prize, MAPRenee Social Media Post of the Week.
