While Mr. Gearhart was gone to Indianapolis Dr. Vernon came to our class as a guest speaker. He gave a presentation called "Social Media Mantra." The presentation made me realize that that all the time I spend on Facebook is not a waste of time. It is important to get your message out to the community no matter what it might be. Vernon's Rule of Thirds is a great method. Everyone can be an advocate for agriculture by having your post be 1/3 social (about you), 1/3 pointing to other links (fun stuff), and then 1/3 something authentic about agriculture (ex. trivia facts).
Dr. Vernon made it clear that communicating is a huge factor in today's society and that everyone should have a Facebook and/or twitter account in order to stay connected.
