I am so excited to finally be able to announce the launch of Higher Ed Live! Higher Ed Live is a brand new LIVE weekly web show focused on the emerging role of social media and digital media marketing in higher education. Hosted by yours truly, the show will broadcast live every Sunday at 7 p.m. EST. Each week’s episode will feature exclusive interviews with web and marketing professionals from colleges and universities across the country, and provide viewers with direct access to some of the best and brightest minds from the world’s leading tech firms. Tackling a different topic each week, it is my sincere hope that Higher Ed Live can be both fun and a valuable resource to higher ed professionals around the globe.
So what do you think? Have an idea for a topic or guest? Want to come on the show yourself? Leave me a comment and let me know! In the meantime, check out the below video for some more information.

Plan to Attend
As Media Changes 
Stop pointing your finger at me.
I will do no such thing! haha
Great idea, looking forward to watching, love your blog. I use social media in the classroom often and also encourage interns to use it for their careers–an invaluable resource on all levels.
Thanks, Margaret! If you tune in on Sunday, let me know what you think! I’m glad you find the blog useful and would love your feedback on the show 🙂
Hey! I’m super psyched about your new project. I’ll have to come on with my boss sometime!
For sure. We can chat about the show (+ UCLA etc.) over coffee this week!

Really looking forward to Higher Ed Live. I will be sure to tune & spread the word around.
Very excited to see the new show. Will episodes be archived for later viewing?
Yup! Every episode will be archived at higheredlive.com. We’re putting together a weekly mailing list as well. So, if you can’t tune in live you can always catch up later in the week.
Sounds like a great topic, Seth. I would be interested to get on the mailing list for this, and will definitely look forward to the broadcast.
Ed, you can sign up for our mailing list at the bottom right side of higheredlive.com!
I propose one episode interviewing communications departments that *aren’t* using digital marketing and social media to hear why.
That’s a really interesting idea John. If someone’s willing to step up and defend why they don’t embrace digital marketing I’m all for it!
Thanks so much for organizing this! I’d love to be a guest on your show. I could talk about various topics, but would love to talk about the advantages and disadvantages of online lead generation in Higher Ed. The for-profit colleges have been using online lead gen for quite some time and the not-for-profit colleges are just starting to realize the potential. Online lead gen can be very effective, but unfortunately there are a lot of unscrupulous practices that colleges need to be aware of. Here are a few resources I’ve created previously on this topic:

Also, is there a way to be notified when you have a new show scheduled and will you be posting recordings of the show? Let me know. Thanks!-Elizabeth
Elizabeth,
That’s a great topic idea. I will definitely keep it in mind!
As for the show schedule, you can get detailed info about each upcoming episode at the bottom left of higheredlive.com or by checking out our Plancast page at http://plancast.com/higheredlive. For the most part, I’ll be going live every Sunday night at 7 p.m. (EST) unless otherwise noted.
