Manhattanville college portrays itself as to the fullest on its social media sites to encourage their students to attend the events, and prospective students that are looking for information that they need for their ideal school. In our day in age, we all connect through social media platforms such as Facebook and Instagram; instead of the college sending us a thousand information letters about events and open houses, they now connect through Facebook and Instagram. On Facebook, the Manhattanville College portrays itself in a more professional and adult manor. Whoever is running the account updates it every other day or every couple of days instead of as often as it should. The reviews on the page are stating that the college doesn’t show its school spirit. While on the college’s instagram page, the audience will see images of students embracing their school spirit. Each social media site has somewhat the same range of follower: Facebook has 7,366 likes, while Instagram has 2,216 followers. But the Instagram pages gets more feedback and likes than the Facebook page does due to the lack of appeal that the Facebook page has to offer towards the students and its community. The both present “throwback” pictures of the college when it use to be an all girls catholic college, to show how much progress the school has made during its time. Overall the school does its best to appeal to their students and its prospective students, to go to this wonderful school.
