Multi-modal Communications via Single-sign On
Colleges experience constant churn within the student population. Keeping up with the accounts and managing them effectively through a self-hosted email/communication system proves to be a significant resource drain for higher ed institutions and they are not able to address escalating capacity demands. With CampusCruiser in place, they improve utilization of their IT resources and budgets and better serve the needs of their students. College administrators can gain a greater level of manageability, flexibility, and scalability, while at the same time reducing administrative costs associated with managing an on-site system.
On college campuses it is not always easy to effectively and efficiently communicate with students, faculty, and staff. Most campuses have only two means for electronic communications: Email and the college Web site. Email—especially mass email—is often disregarded. College Web sites are best used to communicate with prospective students, parents, and the wider community– not students, faculty, and staff.
CampusCruiser provides the technical infrastructure and organizational capacity to support complex college communications needs—beyond the Web site and email.
The CampusCruiser infrastructure and strategic approach promotes campus-wide engagement with effective, targeted communication across the academic enterprise for both on- and off-campus constituents.
- Email

Not only does the CampusCruiser portal strategy eliminate administrative inefficiencies and redundancies but it improves communications among all groups: student services, online services, online learning. In turn, bolstered communication fosters a sense of belonging among faculty, staff and students, which keeps constituents engaged longer and may lead to increased retention rates.
