<span style="font-size: medium;">Strategy #1 Academic Social Media</span>
<span style="font-size: medium;">Develop a platform for Iona students to build relationships with each other and gain mentors through faculty and successful alumni. It will be promoted through acceptance letters/emails, orientation, promotional events and fliers. Students will then sign up to our schools platform to stay connected and receive support on their track towards their diploma. This platform will be using an existing websige implemented by the Hynes Institute called startup tree.7</span>
