On February 26, 2010, Southern University
officially launched its SU...Today, Always campaign.The target
audience includes, but is not limited to, Louisiana State Legislators, Louisiana
Board of Regents, Southern University alumni, faculty, students, staff,
stakeholders, and supporters.Main objectives include:
~ Raise awareness and appreciation of the system's
contributions to residents, communities, regions and the state as a whole.
~Strengthen advocacy
efforts for the system among the state's top government officials, legislators, alumni, business leaders and key
influencers.
~ Promote the message of Southern University to every corner of
the State of Louisiana and to mount a very aggressive defense of our System
during the 2010 Regular Session of the Louisiana Legislature.
A broad media "push" strategy will be
implemented to enhance the system's advocacy efforts.A variety of
public relations initiatives will be utilized to achieve the overall
goal.The timing of the campaign is designed to coincide with the
start of the 2010 legislative session, so that as legislators are deliberating
over critical issues relative to the SU System, they will consistently see the
positive messages relayed through the Southern University...Today, Always
campaign.
