Let it snow, let it snow...

As the snow continues to fall in frosty St. Louis, one can't help but think back to the better days. The days where a massive downfall led to no school, which led to sleeping in and daytime soaps! Unfortunately, those days are over...for most of us.

Fret not, friends, the merry crew at SMCSTL is going "back to school" for our January event. We've gathered some of St. Louis' brightest minds in the higher education marketing & social media field to share their knowledge with the masses. Panel style! 

This higher ed panel, consisting of three esteemed professionals and one student, will cover the use of social media in the classroom and in support of higher education initiatives. Topics that will be discussed include: recruitment, social media in the classroom, student interaction, marketing and brand awareness, outreach, and much more!

How it's going down.

• What: Social Media Club monthly event - Higher Ed Panel
• Where: Gio's Downtown
• When: 1/27/2011 @ 6:00PM, Panel starts at 7:00PM
