Spring Tweets!
As the birds return for the spring and you all settle back in after a week away, we’d like to remind you to follow us on Twitter. It’s a great way to keep up-to-date on all of the post-Spring Break happenings here @theUHP!
Tweets Are In The Air!
This Valentine’s day (remember, that’s tomorrow!), we’re taking our 140 characters and dressing them up. We’re gluing on lace, sprinkling them with glitter, cutting them in the shape of a heart, and signing them with Xs and Os. The great thing about Twitter is that you can have unlimited Valentines! Follow Us so we can share the love with you.

Twitter Can Be Tasty!
You probably already know that the Honors Program has a Twitter handle, I mean, we’re pretty much GW internet celebrities around here. What you might not have known is that Twitter is our go-to place for sharing the news when we wind up with an excess of unexpected food. Seniors will remember the golden age of Georgetown cupcakes (they seriously came every week for a while.) While we can’t promise you cupcakes, getting a free treat (if not a Thanksgiving Feast) every once in a while is virtually a guarantee for our most devoted Twitterati.
More seriously though, Twitter is where we go to share quick information fast, ask questions, and generally have fun joking around with students. So click that follow button! You
know you want to.
If Twitter’s not your thing, we’ve also got a Facebook page and newsletter that provide a similarly condensed take on what we’ve posted recently.

Social Media and Municipal Police Departments: Current Use and Future Prospects
As public officials and scholars alike concern themselves with declines in civic engagement and a weakening of the public sphere, new technologies– in particular social media– have arisen. Some see these new technologies as providing opportunities for and forums within which enhanced government-citizen interaction and even collaboration. I investigate this prospect by looking at social media use among municipal police departments. I ask: Which social media platforms do police departments use? Do police departments use them for information and announcements or for interaction? Where interaction is taking place, is it transactional or collaborative.I, accompanied by 2nd year Honors student and Research Assistant Andrew Beauregard, will discuss the results of a pilot study of 10 police departments and results to date of a larger study of 25 police departments. Andrew will discuss his experience collecting and working with data.
