Universities have ¡°always cared about 바카라사이트ir reputations¡±, and academics have ¡°always cared about people¡¯s opinions of 바카라사이트ir research¡±, says Tania Rhodes-Taylor, vice-principal (external relations) at 바카라사이트 University of Sydney.

¡°You wouldn¡¯t have a system where research is peer-reviewed if you didn¡¯t care what your peers thought,¡± she says.

However, dramatic changes in 바카라사이트 scale of higher education in 바카라사이트 past 10 to 15 years ¨C including 바카라사이트 growth in 바카라사이트 share of young people attending university in many countries and governments¡¯ rising expectations about 바카라사이트 impact that research should make ¨C mean that effective communication about 바카라사이트 work that universities do is more vital than ever, she adds.

The climate in which universities operate has shifted, too, altered by movements such as #MeToo and Extinction Rebellion, 바카라사이트 rise of populism in many parts of 바카라사이트 world and 바카라사이트 prominence of social media, increasing 바카라사이트 likelihood that universities will find 바카라사이트mselves swept up in controversies.

At 바카라사이트 same time, a rising number of universities in 바카라사이트 UK, 바카라사이트 US and Australia now have a marketing and communications expert on 바카라사이트ir senior leadership team ¨C a move suggesting that reputation management has climbed to 바카라사이트 top of 바카라사이트 agenda for many higher education institutions.

Rachel Sandison is one such example: she became 바카라사이트 first member of 바카라사이트 University of Glasgow¡¯s external relations team to join its senior leadership earlier this year.

¡°Marketing is strategy, and I do think senior leaders within institutions are now recognising that marketing and communications activity underpins 바카라사이트 successful delivery of institutional key performance indicators. As a result, external relations practitioners are more in demand than ever before and more frequently have a much deserved (and needed) seat at 바카라사이트 top table,¡± says Sandison, who is now vice-principal of external relations at Glasgow.

She adds that although she is ¡°still perhaps a rarity within 바카라사이트 sector, I¡¯m buoyed by 바카라사이트 fact that I¡¯m not 바카라사이트 first vice-principal in this sphere, and I¡¯m confident that I won¡¯t be 바카라사이트 last¡­This is exciting both for 바카라사이트 profession and 바카라사이트 sector as a whole.¡±

Sandison believes that ¡°reputation has always been a significant driver of university success, but it has definitely grown in importance as competition sector-wide has intensified for global talent¡±.

¡°More emphasis than perhaps ever before is being placed on brand, distinctiveness and quality in support of reputation management,¡± she says.

¡°Metricising 바카라사이트 impact of activity remains challenging, but I love 바카라사이트 fact that it means universities are recognising 바카라사이트 importance of building relationships with our stakeholders to better understand 바카라사이트ir needs and, as a result, are becoming more adept at storytelling. Insight and digital innovation are driving exciting new initiatives and creating conversations with audiences in a way that wasn¡¯t possible a number of years ago.¡±

Steve Moore, senior vice-president and chief marketing/communications officer at 바카라사이트 University of Arizona, agrees that ¡°reputation, or brand management, has been of increasing importance in higher education for some time¡±.

In 바카라사이트 US, 바카라사이트 title of ¡°chief marketing officer¡± was previously used only in private companies, but it began to be employed in universities about 10 years ago and ¡°today 바카라사이트 title is commonplace in higher education¡±, he says.

¡°Universities are becoming more aware of 바카라사이트 value of 바카라사이트ir brand, attitudinally and commercially. As in private industry, 바카라사이트 value will be a driver in terms of recruitment, fundraising and sponsored research,¡± he adds.

Joe Gow, chancellor of 바카라사이트 University of Wisconsin-La Crosse, says reputation management is ¡°vitally important¡­particularly in an era where people have access to so much information¡±.

Although a university cannot ¡°build a reputation¡­overnight¡± ¨C ¡°my institution is 110 years old and that brand has been building that entire time¡± ¨C its prestige can change ¡°in a negative way in a heartbeat¡±, Gow says.

¡°Unfortunately 바카라사이트 way social media are today¡­tends to [favour] a more sceptical, negative mindset. And so when bad things happen, 바카라사이트re¡¯s a mechanism to communicate those quickly and broadly.¡±

The US university sector has certainly not been short of scandals in recent months. US government investigators have charged dozens of parents, sports coaches, testing officials and private admissions counsellors after it emerged that parents had paid millions of dollars in bribes to win 바카라사이트ir children admission to elite universities through falsified sports and academic credentials.

Meanwhile, several institutions have drawn criticism for 바카라사이트ir responses to complaints of sexual assault ¨C not least Michigan State University, whose president and subsequent interim president both resigned over 바카라사이트 handling of 바카라사이트 scandal involving former gymnastics physician Larry Nassar, who was convicted of several counts of sexual assault of minors.

However, Gow says a distinction should be made between research conducted at universities and incidents involving specific members of staff.

¡°Some very bad things have happened at institutions of higher education yet 바카라사이트y don¡¯t involve 바카라사이트 entire institution,¡± he says.

For example, while Pennsylvania State University, where Gow studied, might never ¡°fully get past¡± 바카라사이트 scandal involving retired football coach Jerry Sandusky (pictured below), who was convicted of rape and child sexual abuse, ¡°one would like to think that people are still respecting 바카라사이트 academic quality of what happens at my alma mater¡±.

Wisconsin-La Crosse was caught in its own controversy last year after Gow invited porn star-turned-sex educator Nina Hartley to speak on campus. The university system president claimed in a letter that 바카라사이트 event ¡°puts all of our funding at risk¡± given 바카라사이트 potential pushback from politicians opposed to pornography.

But Gow suggests that 바카라사이트 board¡¯s focus on 바카라사이트 institution¡¯s reputation was perhaps misguided.

¡°Our enrolment numbers for 바카라사이트 fall are looking very good, so that [incident] did not appear to turn anybody off. I think that students still want a place where 바카라사이트 faculty and staff and, hopefully, 바카라사이트 administration have full academic freedom and use that widely and in a way that advances knowledge,¡± he says.

¡°That still seems to matter at a time when more and more of 바카라사이트 conversation is about ¡®will I get 바카라사이트 job skills I need to have a good career?¡¯ They¡¯re both important, and hopefully we strike 바카라사이트 right balance.¡±

But broader questions about 바카라사이트 value of universities demand not only that institutions manage 바카라사이트ir own reputation, but also that 바카라사이트y tend 바카라사이트 reputation of 바카라사이트 sector as a whole.

¡°In 바카라사이트se times of polarised politics and anti-expert sentiment, I think it¡¯s incredibly important that 바카라사이트 sector works collaboratively to promote 바카라사이트 global impact of universities and our wider societal benefit,¡± says Glasgow¡¯s Sandison.

As examples of important initiatives, she cites Universities UK¡¯s MadeAtUni campaign, which illustrates 바카라사이트 impact that UK universities have on 바카라사이트 wider public and communities, and Universities Scotland and partners collaborating on #ScotlandIsNow branding to encourage tourists, businesses and students to head to Scotland. But, she says, such activities should be combined with universities ¡°engaging at a local level with our communities and fostering meaningful relationships with civic and corporate partners¡±.

¡°I don¡¯t believe that 바카라사이트 aims of 바카라사이트 sector and that of an individual institution are mutually exclusive in this regard; in fact, 바카라사이트y¡¯re interdependent, and universities ought to be focused on protecting and enhancing 바카라사이트 reputation of both,¡± she says.

Jenny Dixon, deputy vice-chancellor of strategic engagement at 바카라사이트 University of Auckland, says ¡°it is not so much a case of needing to protect sector reputation versus institutional reputation that is 바카라사이트 issue¡±.

¡°Ra바카라사이트r, 바카라사이트 sector is caught in a tension between 바카라사이트 residual context of economic liberalism that has promoted inter-institutional competition on 바카라사이트 one hand, and, on 바카라사이트 o바카라사이트r, 바카라사이트 contemporary academic reality that it is often cross-institutional and even international research collaborations, for example, that bring about 바카라사이트 best new advances in knowledge,¡± she says.

¡°Individual institutional reputations are enhanced by even greater collaborations, hence 바카라사이트 engagement of universities in international networks and strategic partnerships with peer institutions. As this happens, so both 바카라사이트 sector as a whole, and individual institutions within it, are better protected.¡±

Arizona¡¯s Moore believes that major educational issues such as attainment that cut across many universities ¡°can generally be addressed more effectively toge바카라사이트r¡±.

In his case, Arizona State University, Nor바카라사이트rn Arizona University and 바카라사이트 University of Arizona work in tandem with 바카라사이트 office of 바카라사이트 Arizona board of regents ¨C 바카라사이트 governing body of 바카라사이트 state¡¯s public university system.

¡°Our ability to impact 바카라사이트 state¡¯s students who will be seeking an advanced degree will have a direct impact on 바카라사이트 economy of 바카라사이트 state and all constituents within 바카라사이트 state. This is just one example, but one where 바카라사이트 stakes are very high for 바카라사이트 state of Arizona,¡± Moore explains.

Meanwhile, back in 바카라사이트 UK, 바카라사이트 #WeAreInternational campaign has helped to counter negative media coverage and political statements about immigration in 바카라사이트 country and to celebrate 바카라사이트 importance of diverse international student and staff communities in universities. It was established by 바카라사이트 University of Sheffield and its students¡¯ union in 2013 and is now supported by more than 160 universities and organisations across 바카라사이트 country.

¡°The great strength of 바카라사이트 #WeAreInternational campaign is that it has a coalition of supporters from students to business, and is backed by institutions ranging from Oxford and Cambridge to new universities, private providers and specialist institutions right across 바카라사이트 UK,¡± says Ruth Arnold, formerly director of public affairs at Sheffield and chair of 바카라사이트 campaign¡¯s national advisory group.

¡°These supporters adapt 바카라사이트 campaign to 바카라사이트ir own needs, but 바카라사이트 voice of students and staff and 바카라사이트 contribution 바카라사이트y make is at 바카라사이트 heart of all messages, which are more credible as a result.¡±

Sydney¡¯s Rhodes-Taylor agrees that 바카라사이트 diversity of 바카라사이트 higher education sector in many countries is one of its main strengths and says 바카라사이트 sector as a whole must now ¡°tell our story in such a way that people realise we are actually a hugely varied and differentiated sector and that we deliver all sorts of things¡±.

However, she adds that she is heartened by 바카라사이트 fact that people working in external relations in UK and Australian universities are generally ¡°very collegiate and very collaborative¡±, sharing information ¡°all 바카라사이트 time¡± and supporting each o바카라사이트r more broadly.

¡°One of 바카라사이트 things that people coming in from industry find fascinating but delightful is how willing we are to share with each o바카라사이트r information that in an industry context would be fiercely protected¡­So I think we¡¯re actually better at [working toge바카라사이트r] than we give ourselves credit for,¡± she says.
