Graduates, Have You Created Your Digital Legacy Yet?

Posted on 07:22 by Unknown

Graduation is just a few days away now and I know you are filled with excitement and have lots of things going through your mind. But have you stopped to think about your legacy at SU?

Don't know what a digital legacy and want to learn more click here, but in short it is the digital footprint that future historians will use to trace your life. This will include all things like your tweets, Facebook post, online pictures, and the video you upload of your time at SU.

During your time here you grew, learned, engaged, collaborated, and expanded your family. As you prepare to move from student to alumni take a few minutes to ponder over everything. Then create a short video telling your story and upload that video at upload.su.edu. As long as your video meets the requirements below, it will be come part of the SU Mobile App. More importantly your digital legacy has been created and your video may be the one that helps another student decide to attend SU or it may be the one that gives a fellow student the encouragement to continue at SU.

I challenge all graduates participating on Saturday to upload their video. I have walked your shoes and when I graduated SU was not able to help create my digital legacy, so all I can do is donate each year and hope they open up an alumni video area soon. Finally, let me be the first to welcome you to the SU alumni family.

What you submit is up to YOU! Most of all, have fun!

Here are a few 'rules':
  • Use appropriate language and images to effectively to show case yourself and/or Shenandoah
  • Respect all applicable copyright laws. This must be your own work.
  • You must properly cite works of others, if you need help with this just ASK
  • Make sure you submit a profile picture
  • Acceptable video format includes: MPEG4, M4V, MOV, WMV, & FLV. The preferred format is MOV.There are several free video converters on the Web if you do a Google search
  • Do not send .ZIP files, we will not use them
  • Keep videos to 5 minutes or less and under 25MB in size. Smaller files upload & download faster, you'll have better success submitting a profile the first time.
