Anyone who has spent more than one week at Carleton will know there are certain things about our campus that are, I guess I could say, uniquely embraced.

As someone who manages some of Carleton’s social media accounts, I can tell you that these things that are uniquely Carleton for you are likely uniquely Carleton for someone else too. If you’re looking to engage with your Carleton audience in a way that doesn’t mention the day-to-day workings of your office, but still speaks to the community we have here, take a few minutes and write something on your social platform.
