Steele Wars : Star Wars PodcastEp 195 : Hammie - Confessions Of A Brand New Star Wars FanHammie went her entire life without watching a single Star Wars film and then watched the entire saga in a week concluding with a cinema screening of the just released The Last Jedi! After reading Hammie's “Confessions of a brand new Star Wars fan” Twitter threadhighlighting her often hilarious first impressions of the films and it's characters, I really wanted to know how that experience would give her a unique perspective on how the films fit together without the often rose coloured filter of childhood memories.

(Part 1 was “Cautionary Tales & Cautious Rebrandings” https://youtu.be/m2LF3rGiMLc . Part 2 was “Bold New Brands of 2015” https://youtu.be/pxmRfUfzZ5o .) Without a doubt, institutions are loathe to lose decades of brand equity and recognition by changing their names. Generally it occurs only when the institution’s mandate has changed significantly, such as when a college gains university status, or an institute becomes a polytechnic. (Most recently it was SIAST becoming Saskatchewan Polytechnic.)2017-01-0315 minTen with Ken (Audio)Bold New Higher Ed Brands of 2015Last week, Ken shared some classic cautionary tales of higher ed brand misfires, and we looked at some particularly cautious new brands from Canadian colleges and universities, perhaps in response. (Last week: https://youtu.be/m2LF3rGiMLc ) This week, we look at the flipside: provocative brands and campaigns that deliberately court controversy.

This week, we look at some notable brand mis-steps that have become cautionary tales for campus marketers, and the inevitable result: some very cautious, gradual rebrandings that don’t risk passionate opposition from traditional-minded stakeholders like students, faculty, and alumni. Particularly for smaller, remote institutions experiencing the early effects of declining demographics, it’s critical to develop the visibility a strong brand can support. In recent years, many higher ed institutions have hired...2017-01-0315 min
