What is your Why?

Please take a moment to share why you support Marietta College, our students, and our community. If your message is for an individual in our community, we'll be proud to forward it to them. If it's a memory or message that could inspire us all, we'd love to share that, too!

Thank you for sharing your love for MC, and your reasons for staying engaged. Thanks for being our "why," and please contact us with any questions at alumni@marietta.edu.

Recommended talking points:
  1. Tell us a little bit about yourself, such as: 
    1. Graduation year, major, primary extracurricular activities 
    2. Career highlights, where you live
  2. Explain why you support Marietta College
  3. Encourage/challenge others to join you in the Day of Giving on February 14

Recording Tips:
  • You can record directly to ThankView on your desktop or mobile device.
  • Make sure to film horizontally so you fill the frame.
  • When recording with a phone or tablet, use a tripod or prop it up with something like books for stability. Try not to hold it.
  • Keep your device close for good sound quality but far enough away that you are the focus. Try 3-4 feet.
  • Choose a location that provides balanced lighting. Try to find a room that has a lot of natural light with the window facing you.
  • Choose a flattering angle for your recording. Shooting from below is not usually a person’s best angle.
  • Avoid echo chambers. Oftentimes sparse offices or conference rooms with glass walls can create a lot of echoes.
  • Avoid blustery locations or areas with a lot of foot or vehicle traffic as your device’s mic may pick up noise.
  • The content of your video is ultimately up to you. Make it funny, sweet, informative - whatever tone you want.
  • Create a video between thirty seconds and a minute to keep people engaged.
  • Be yourself and have fun!
