Rough and Tumblr

For those not in the know, Tumblr is an incredibly popular microblogging platform where users can post content of all kinds—video, text, pictures, music, and more.

“This Too Shall Pass”: Resituating Book Marketing in a Shifting Media Environment (Manager Monday—Marketing)

I’ve said it before, and I’ll continue to say it—Ooligan Press is a high-quality small press because of rather than in spite of the nature of the graduate student staff. Oolies are in general adaptable, excitable, and, because we are students too, abreast of the most exciting industry advances and innovations. That said, one of […]

What’s in a Blog?

Why blog? Readers, it’s time to get a little bit meta. Every term we students scour our community, our field, and our brains to bring you interesting blog topics. Occasionally, when we are banging our heads against our keyboards, we wonder why. Reflection is rarely a wasted exercise, so let’s look at why Ooligan has […]

Manager Monday: Digital Outreach Strategy and the Future of Marketing (Marketing)

Near the end of the spring term, when Ooligan’s veteran managers were wrestling with their portfolios and doing just a little more proofreading on their final papers, incoming managers were preparing to take over our respective departments.
