Division of Student Affairs Is Looking for Social Media Interns

The Division of Student Affairs is looking for students who are interested in becoming student Social Media Interns.

Students need to have a vibrant social media presence and be comfortable with making Twitter and Instagram posts. Students should also show an interest in posting content about their lives as a University of Arkansas student to their personal account and sharing that with the Division of Student Affairs' accounts. Content pulled from Social Media Interns will be given credit.

Students will be selected to be interns based on their social media presence, an application, and resumes. Students interested in the position can fill out the application online.

Additionally, Social Media Interns though not paid, can receive service hours for their time spent working with the division.

Allyson Braggs, social media graduate assistant for Student Affairs, manages the division's social presence and will work with the Social Media Interns to use and repurpose their content, while building Student Affairs content.

"This school has such amazing diversity and such a rich culture," Braggs said. "I want to help show how the students love this campus. By using tweets, photos, and posts there are already making, this gives students an ownership of what is happening on their campus."

"This was an amazing initiative that was done before, and I want to bring it back and make it better. I think an intern program will help do that," Braggs said. "The students and campus are constantly changing, and I want to show that."
