Forbes.com has a new post citing the best online presences for colleges and universities.  Marquette, my alma mater, does very well.  So, of course, I thought I'd share it.  Kudos to the entire MU team! 

The full story is here.  It begins, "Who’d have thought Marquette was the most active Tweeter? Or that Cal crushes every school in YouTube views? Must be all those Zach Maynard highlight reels, right? Fun fact: Yellow is more popular than red on school sites."

Full disclosure, I'm on the Interactive Marketing Committee at Marquette but that doesn't tarnish the fact that I'm proud of the fine work at Marquette and this cool national exposure for a Milwaukee university.  

A final note, and a testament to the social media savvy at MU.  Thanks to some help from Marquette students, Forbes changed its original story that had Syracuse as the top Twitter school.
