Stories that Celebrate

Throughout the 2022-23 Academic Year, the Communications team put a strong focus on telling the story of UMassD from those who can share it best – our students. 

From following students studying abroad and highlighting local internship success to covering students stepping out of the classroom to make an impact in their community (and doing pretty amazing things like attending the SOTU!), the Comms team had it covered. 

There’s a lot that happens after we click “publish” on a story. See below for just a few examples of where our stories end up (with the help of our marketing colleagues) – print pieces, social media, video, digital ads and more!  

Featured stories:
Ramina Behzad ’25: Turning her passion into life-changing
Janay Davidson, JD ’23: Ready for work as a New York City public defender
Kenny Duong, ’23, ’24: Becoming a leader

High School Grads Show They’re #InAtUMassD

In an effort to bring some excitement to our incoming class and create user generated content, the Marketing team collaborated on a multi-media campaign to congratulate future UMassD students on their high school graduation.

First-year deposited students received a package in late May with a sticker to display their commitment to UMassD on their grad cap. 🎓

Fun fact: The sticker was designed by graphic design major Dylan Kelly ’22.

The Package.

The Promotions.

The Posts.

It’s a team effort.
