Marymount University has expanded on the worldwide web. As all facebook users know, you can join groups in regards to your school, city, or both. Marymount actually has some of its own facebook pages under “organizations-clubs and societies”.
The first I will mention is the Fashion Club page on facebook. It is an open group, in which everyone at Marymount can join and invite friends to join as well. The description states “Students of Marymount University gain knowledge and experience in the fashion industry through charity and fashion events, industry and career speakers, workshops, and fashion-related field trips”. The page also includes contact information, including an email address, location address, and room number. Recent news and information about the club and meetings are also labeled on the site. You are able to view other members, discussion boards, photos, and other posted items.
The second page is Marymount’s Fashion Advice Column. This page is also open to anyone on the Marymount network. This description says “Marymount University's first anynonymous FASHION ADVICE COLUMN (in cooperation with Marymount University's "MU BANNER") that is created to answer any of your questions on fashion do's & dont's, beauty, health && anything centered around the outward appearance..:)”. This page allows the same type of interaction as the previously site. I am under the impression that this might be a new addition to facebook, due to the fact that there are only a few members, and absolutely no photos, posts, or comments.
I think both of these pages are great! It is such and easy, yet amazing way to get people at Marymount to rally around a common bond and cause. It is also a simple way to meet new people and stay connected with old friends. I am looking forward to the advice column in particular. I think some of the questions and comments posted are going to be not only hilarious, but some might even be beneficial!

I agree that both of these pages are great. Since Marymount is most known for its Fashion program, the fashion students should be a close knit community. These pages are realistic ways for students to voice their opinions and give advice. Everyone is one facebook and checks it at least once a day. This is an easy way to inform students of upcoming oppurtunities and fashion club meetings. I hope that the fashion students take advantage of these outlets.
