Authentic Allyship: Crafting Campaigns that Support LGBTQIA+ Students Year-Round

Or listen on:

About the Episode

LGBTQIA+ students, like all students, need to see themselves represented in university marketing materials. An inclusive marketing strategy ensures that these students feel welcomed and valued by the institution, which can be a deciding factor in their college selection process. In this episode, Jaime sits down with Kevin Tyler, Director of Marketing and Community Engagement at Simpson Scarborough, to discuss how to authentically market to LGBTQIA+ students and – perhaps even more importantly – how to ensure that LGBTQIA+ students feel supported on your campus. Takeaways for the episode include:

  • Best practices for demonstrating a commitment to LGBTQIA+ students, faculty, staff, and alumni
  • Cautionary tales that reflect the importance of authenticity
  • Insights into how to integrate LGBTQIA+ supportive messaging into everyday campus life, not just during Pride Month
  • Tips for partnering with student organizations and advocacy groups to craft campaigns that resonate
  • Resources for staying current on the evolving language around LGBTQIA+ topics

The goal of the episode is to equip university marketers with the knowledge and tools to create and implement marketing strategies that genuinely support and affirm LGBTQ+ students, ensuring that inclusivity is woven into the fabric of the institution's brand and community engagement efforts.
