Higher Education

The higher education landscape has changed. Colleges, universities, and other educational programs must prepare students with the skills and knowledge needed in the global economy. At the same time, these institutions face continued pressure from students, faculty, alumni, and supporters across the political spectrum to address culturally-charged issues. 

​

New West Communications supports these institutions in navigating this increasingly complex landscape.

We draw from our experience leading communications for a flagship research university and multiple colleges to help presidents, chancellors, deans, and chief communications officers develop proactive messaging strategies and frameworks. We understand the needs of diverse campus stakeholders and anticipate and respond to crises.

Our clients include major national universities, regional colleges, professional programs, and academic institutes. We guide them as they organize their communications teams, gain buy-in from stakeholders, and navigate complex legal, Title IX, and media issues. Every institution is unique, and New West tailors our services to meet their needs.
