Marketing and Communications

Time To Say Cheese, Please: March 26

Each month, the marketing office schedules a photographer to take a small number of head shots, available on a first-come, first-served basis, for our online directory. The next session is Tuesday, March 26, from 11 a.m. to noon. To schedule an appointment or for questions, please e-mail Suzanne Frey at freys@up.edu no later than 3 p.m. on Monday, March 25.

Photos will be taken in Clark Library’s Digital Lab, located on the second floor, Room 215. Only those with confirmed appointments may attend.  Please note: These appointments are limited to faculty and staff who currently do not have a professional headshot in the online directory.

Share Your Ideas: New Digital Photo Gallery

Marketing and communications is developing a new web application, named ShareUP, which will allow faculty and staff to easily find and download curated images. But we need your input in making sure that we are designing the application in the most user-friendly way.

Please join the marketing team on Thursday, March 28, from 11:15 a.m. – 12:30 p.m., in the Library Conference Room. Marketing team members will present a similar digital gallery and walk through its capabilities. Please join us so we can understand what works…and what doesn’t.

To make sure there is room for everyone, please email Chris Long at longc@up.edu to RSVP. Chris can also at that time give you access to the test site for you to review ahead of time.

Got Stories?

The recent kitten rescue story in upbeat drew plenty of responses from UP faculty and staff, which is a great reason for the marketing office to remind upbeat readers that we are happy to hear any and all stories that may be of interest to the campus community. We especially love to give credit to random acts of kindness and generosity, which happen with alarming frequency here at our home on The Bluff.

Please send your stories to upbeat editor Marc Covert at mcovert@up.edu. We can’t guarantee all stories will make the cut, but we’re in the business of story catching and story telling, so there’s a good chance we can use them in Portland magazine, social media, web releases, and many other outlets.
