Social Media Resources

Continuous Updates and Training

Social media trends and features change often. UTRGV's guidelines will be reviewed regularly, and departments should check for updates from UMC. Attend trainings or meet-ups to learn new best practices and policies. When in doubt, ask for input or approval. Staying informed keeps your social media effective and compliant.

Resources for UTRGV Social Media Admins

Need to create a new social media account for your department or organization? Complete the Social Media Request Form to get started.

Looking for inspiration or wanting to connect with other UTRGV social media pages? Check out the UTRGV Social Media Directory. This directory is a great resource to discover and follow other UTRGV-affiliated accounts, stay updated on university-wide content and trends, and find collaboration opportunities within the UTRGV community.

Stay in the loop with the latest social media trends, best practices, and university-wide updates by joining the UTRGV Social Media Admins Community on Microsoft Viva Engage. Connect with other admins across campus to ask questions, share ideas, and get feedback on your strategies.

Connect directly with over 17,000 UTRGV students by sharing departmental content in our Official Student Facebook Group. It's a highly engaged space where your posts can reach the student community.

All UTRGV-affiliated social media accounts must follow university policies. Review the UTRGV Handbook of Operating Procedures and UMC Branding to ensure compliance with branding, privacy, and ethical standards.

Always use the recommended dimensions for each platform to ensure your posts look their best and are fully optimized.
