Ukraine, Through a Different Lens | Endicott College

Directed by Dmytro Hreskho, Divia tells the story of those who cannot speak for themselves–Ukraine’s animals and ecosystems– documenting the natural beauty of Ukraine and how it is being desecrated by Russian attacks. Using drone technology and also filming on foot with a small crew over the course of two years, Hresko, who is Ukrainian, took on significant personal risk to film in rural areas of the country, returning again and again to document how these places of overwhelming tranquility and natural beauty were broken by war.

MIT students thrive in internships in the Arab World

This summer, nine MIT students worked across the Middle East through the MISTI Arab World Program.  “At MISTI Arab World, the most impactful learning occurs when students venture beyond their comfort zones and experience the richness of a dynamic region,” says Maye Elqasem, program administrator of MISTI Arab World. “Our students return not only with new technical and professional capabilities, but also with a greater sense of self, resilience, and global awareness.”

Some problems require solutions too ambitious to tackle without help from both longtime and new partners. That’s when multisector collaborations come in: powerful initiatives that unite stakeholders from across academia, local government, nonprofits and the business community. Getting everyone to the table — let alone getting them to listen, compromise and work together — isn’t easy, but that’s often what produces outside-the-box results.

Case Study: SMFA BFA + MFA Admissions Viewbooks Project

School of the Museum of Fine Arts at Tufts University had a bold vision for their graduate and undergraduate viewbooks: illustrating the ways that the SMFA experience is “unbound” by traditional academic structures, like narrowly-defined disciplines or overly-structured majors, through the voices and work of their students, alumni, faculty and staff. The admissions team needed to communicate the practical information commonly found in a viewbook, but in a format that encapsulated what makes SMFA different.

Case Study: The 2024 Heller Social Policy Impact Report - Brandeis University

The Heller School for Social Policy and Management at Brandeis University uses their annual impact report to share accomplishments from the past year by distilling the life-changing research from their faculty into stories that are relatable and understandable for their constituents. The report needs to be impressive, but also specific enough to drive the school's rankings for the following year. These faculty research stories, which balance complex social issues with real-world impact, are also used to spread awareness and increase admissions to the Heller School.

Case Study: 2024 University of Notre Dame Sacred Stories Social Media Campaign

Over the past several years Sacred Stories had significantly grown in popularity, but so had the lift on the team to find, interview, schedule and film 25+ participants. Although they still handled the video production in-house, the Notre Dame Alumni Association team needed additional support with the content strategy and creation for the 2024 campaign. They needed well-thought-out copy that efficiently conveyed the meaning of each story and wasn’t just a copy-paste across all five social platforms.

Like Mother, Like Daughter: Whitman Alums Weave a Legacy of Growth & Giving

Ahn Lee Horn ’91 believes in serendipity. She regularly runs into an old friend from her Whitman College days in random airports around the world. “We call it the ‘Whitman Thing,’ an interconnectedness between Whitties that you can’t predict but is always there when you need it most.” That “Whitman Thing” is just one example in a lifetime full of experiences, lessons and friendships that have made being an alum a foundational part of Ahn Lee’s life.

The Big Ugly - Notre Dame Business Mendoza College of Business

“Agriculture is in my blood,” Ben Moore (MBA ‘20) said. After work, he drives his tractor around his family’s farm fields in central California to unwind. When his six-month-old son takes his first steps, it will be barefoot in that same soil. “All I’ve ever wanted to do is get back to farming,” Moore said from his processing plant at The Ugly Company in Farmersville, California. His business upcycles millions of pounds of bruised or funny-looking fruit discarded by farmers and turns it into cle...

Something That's Needed | School of the Museum of Fine Arts | Tufts University

Kate Levant, BFA '06,  is sitting on the second floor of KAJE, the experimental arts not-for-profit that she and fellow SMFA alum Jacques Vidal, BFA ‘04, founded in Brooklyn's Gowanus neighborhood. "What I'm working on is growing this organization," she says, gesturing to the open gallery space below her where exhibition designer Grace Caiazza is about to install a modular display system for a group exhibition titled "Arachnophobia."
