\nTo determine its rankings, StudentAdvisor.com<\/a> looked at schools in terms of how active and effective they are at engaging their audiences on Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, iTunes and other social media tools. One of the criteria the site uses in its rankings is enrollment, and it judges the effectiveness based on how many people it is reaching.

\nThe Office of Communications<\/a> manages the main university social media accounts listed in the ranking (Facebook, Twitter, YouTube).\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cWe are very excited to be considered among the social media elite like Harvard, Stanford, Notre Dame and Princeton,\u201d said Sarah Emmons<\/a>, associate vice president for communications and public relations. \u201cSocial media is a powerful way to connect and interact with our constituents and the outside world.

\nAlso included in the “Top 100” ranking is an institution’s score from TwitterGrader.com<\/a>, which grades the power and reach of any Twitter account based on a number of factors. Transylvania\u2019s Twitter account scores a 96.8 on a 100-point scale and ranks in the top 3.3 percent of over nine million accounts.\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cTransy has tactfully mastered the art of the retweet by sharing stories about student life, academics and athletics under the school’s main Twitter account,\u201d the report said.\n<\/p>\n

\nTransylvania encourages all its constituents\u2014students, parents, alumni, faculty, staff, trustees, friends and anyone interested in the university\u2014to join its social networks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
