CAS Summer Marketing Strategy
Orientation is when most first year students start to feel excited and comfortable about coming to WMU. They meet new people, build lifelong relationship, and learn their way around campus.
The College of Arts and Science’s Marketing department seeks to gain more college pride and exposure on social media sites such as Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram during orientation.

Some ideas for items in one big prize packet would be; t-shirt, umbrella, water bottle, key chain, pens, pencils and sunglasses. The winners would come to the CAS advising office to retrieve their prizes once school starts. The goal is to create more reach to students at WMU and even people who do not go to
