Buffaloes As Seen Through Social Media
The use of social media has increased dramatically over the last decade. Our use of smartphones has allowed for mobile marketing and advertising, application creation and innovation, and, on a more individual level, sharing, connecting and expressing. The mobile universe has come to mean community – a worldwide community yes, but also the opportunity for smaller – and a more specific – community. Popular apps such as Twitter, Facebook and Instagram have allowed CU students to join in on the web of inter-connectivity in the CU community.

Articles, ideas, questions and more are all shared on these pages. Another Buff page is CU Jobs & Internships, in which students to post opportunities involving job and volunteer opportunities.
