I think we're all definitely keeping an eye on ways to measure progress. I know that my bosses usually want the "proof" of effectiveness, but sometimes it's nice to just say "trust me" and see what happens. At minimum, it saves us from a 5-page number-crunching document, haha! We do have a 'rating' system in place where students are rated higher based on activities (campus visit, call-to-action on email, requesting info online, posting in BUForums, etc.) and those rankings determine if a student is mailed an application/viewbook, or simply emailed a link with some info. It's worked well and definitely cuts costs, but we are still struggling on how to implement a lot of the social media aspects into it. Take care! Brad Thanks for the link, Sean.
