  • Be Nimble with Social Media–Make the Snowstorm Work for You!

    The view from St. Paul–specifically St. Catherine University looks a lot like this today. Although I wish the sidewalks around the neighborhood were as clean as the ones in Teresa Boardman‘s photo below–I trudged through a lot of deep snow to get to campus. Minnesotans seem to be natural innovators who can spend an hour…

  • So Cool: What to do in St. Paul-Minneapolis (An Occasional Series): Sever’s Corn Maze

    Saturday dawned foggy and cool, but turned Minnesota Perfect after lunch:  sunny and breezy in the 60s. This is the THE weekend to be outside. If you’re not interested in traveling far, consider a drive to Shakopee to visit the Sever’s Corn Maze. Honestly, I’d never been to one until Social Media Breakfast-MSP (#SMBMSP) invited…

In Integrated Marketing Communications (MKTG 2350) students blog their thoughts on marketing in an effort to learn social media theory, master blogging technology (WordPress.com and Twitter), and tell an evocative story. Storytelling is the most difficult. Even though I blog frequently,…

  • The One Mile Project: Saintly City Trees — Where’s your favorite?

    From home to work is usually a lovely walk. Flat city sidewalks shaded by old elms, maples, oaks, cottonwoods, basswoods, and the occasional Ginkgo. The trees are so lovely in the Saintly City, we even have a Landmark Tree program. Anyone can nominate their favorite tree. Click here to see last year’s trees, photographed by…
