Effort designed to increase engagement with Nevada communities

Our College rolled out a new social media policy during a webinar Nov. 18, 2020 (view the recording). This new policy was developed to maximize the impact of our social channels and reduce issues related to copyright, accessibility and privacy.

Under the new policy, all but three Extension program pages (@UNRExtensionMasterGardeners, @LivingWithFire and @Nevada4H) are to be discontinued. The discontinued program pages will be merged with the page for the Extension county or state office that provides the program. Program page admins are encouraged to become admins on the county or state office page.

Below is a list of affected program pages, the office providing the program and the main or location page into which the program page will be merged. If you have any questions, please contact CABNRComms@unr.edu.
