Sports Information and Social Media
The purpose of the sports information office is to increase the visibility of North Greenville University athletic teams in the upstate, the state of South Carolina and nationally. The sports information office serves as a liaison between the NGU athletic department and the media. The sports information office also provides coverage of NGU home events to media outlets, writes news releases, compiles statistics, reports to the conference and NCAA, maintains the athletic web page and other athletic social media sites and produces web broadcasting for selected home events. By accepting a position on a team at the University, all student-athletes consent to the University using images of the student-athlete caught in video, audio, or other recordings, and/or photographs, images, taken/recorded during participation in any team activities, events, and/or programs for use in the University’s website, social networks (such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc.) or for other University-related marketing and publicity related purposes published on the University website or elsewhere.
Student-athletes are to only speak with a news reporter if arranged by the sports information office or coach regarding NGU athletics or on campus activities. Do not accept reporter calls or texts regarding these issues. Please refer them to the sports information office or your coach. Student-athletes are expected to utilize discretion and appropriate judgement when posting verbiage, pictures and other information on all social networking sites including, but not limited to, Facebook, twitter, Instagram, snapchat and other internet-based sources. Any materials displayed via the internet that negatively depict the university are detrimental to the university and are not in keeping with the team representation responsibility and positive image of our student-athletes. Any student-athlete who displays any such materials may be subject to applicable sanctions outlined in the North Greenville University Student Handbook.
