Tell Our Story

Storytelling builds reputation. Our stories are who we are. Our students, our faculty, our staff, our alumni... the list goes on and on. By telling our story, we reinforce who we are as a university — determined contenders, experiential pioneers, competitive leaders.

What is your role in the storytelling process? As an Oakland University member, you should:

• Accurately and consistently deliver key messages
• Know your audience’s interest — relevance is impact
• Don’t just answer questions, deliver messages
• Celebrate OU by incorporating our Be Golden message
