Technology is not the end all and be all. Strong
communities were built ten years ago before social
media exploded and certainly even before the
internet age.However technology allows us to be better and improve
in our pursuit of purpose and leadership in student
affairs. Let it become the “how” to your “why”
There is something much more important than the tools we have presented here. They will eventually become out-dated or replaced by something better. What remains important is your relationships to new mediums. Will you explore? Will you learn? Will you apply?Some will help you see something you were not able to see before, Some will tell you more about yourself, and others will help you shape the experience for those around you.
