All About MCC’s New Social Media Protocol


As we all know, social media are increasingly powerful tools that help us connect directly with our many communities – and in MCC’s case, particularly with our current and prospective students, faculty and staff. Maybe your area of MCC has been thinking about developing an official social media presence, or perhaps even has one already established. If so, this protocol is for you!

Approved by the President’s staff in May 2016, MCC’s social media protocol puts into place the steps needed to establish and manage an official MCC social media account. The protocol outlines processes including how to propose the creation of an account, how to establish an account’s representation and connection to MCC, and what is needed to manage a social media account once created.

All new/proposed social media accounts representing any official unit of MCC (for example, a department, club or organization, College event, or academic program) should follow the steps outlined in the protocol, beginning with filling out the Social Media Account Proposal Form.

If your unit of the College already has established social media account(s), the basic protocol still applies – however, we’d ask that, instead of completing the Proposal form, you take a moment to share some details with us. This will allow us to assist you in representing MCC within protocol guidelines, as well as let us know your account(s) exists so we can link to and share it appropriately.

Thanks so much for your help! Questions? Contact: <mailto:cbarry@monroecc.edu>.
