At Missouri State University, we’re proud of our students and all the great things they do every day.
To showcase students’ achievements, we recently began using Merit to publish stories about them.
Why use Merit?
Merit allows users to highlight many types of student accomplishments.
This includes:
- Landing an internship.
- Presenting at a conference.
- Publishing or presenting a research project.
- Receiving a scholarship.
- Studying abroad.
- Winning an award.
Sharing students’ achievements
Through Merit, each student gets a personal page to customize.
When a story is published about a student, it gets added to his or her page. The story also gets distributed to hometown papers, local officials and high school counselors.
Using Merit allows us to show pride in our students’ achievements.
It’s also a good recruitment tool. Students and their families can share accomplishments showcased through Merit on their social media and beyond.
