 Hashtags can be used for Twitter and Instagram
and will allow you and everyone following the
hashtag to share stories about your event.
 NYU used the hashtag #CongratagradNYU to have families
and friends congratulate their graduates.
 A simple screen in the graduation arena/auditorium can be
a fun way to add memories to the ceremony.
 The University of Central Oklahoma used the TweetBeam
feature and thus tripled the engagement from last fall. This
new way of visualizing Twitter loads tweets live from Twitter

any topic.

 Ask students and attendees to use your specific hashtag to
share pictures. Then feature the shared pictures on
Facebook and ask your grads to tag themselves.
 The University of Southern California posted hundreds of photos on its
Facebook within hours of the ceremony ending, with the simple message
of, “Congrats to all our 2013 graduates! These photos were collected from
this year's USC grad social media campaign. See yourself or your friends
here? Tag them in your comments and give them a big "fight on!"
Everyone started liking, tagging and commenting immediately, keeping
the party going way after the end of the ceremony.
 New tools are now available to allow attendees to tag
themselves in very large crowds.
 Boston University decided to use Giga Tag that allows users to tag
themselves, and share shots with their communities. Here is a peek
