Example One:

“A welcome worthy of Endicott.

Our College has always been a friendly and supportive institution for our students.

We will create a welcome truly worthy of Endicott.

Visiting students may not remember all the stats shared during their visit to Endicott’s campus. They may be unable to recite all the majors and minors we offer. But they will remember the beautiful new welcome center at our seaside campus. And we will remember your name.

You have the opportunity to have your name be synonymous with hospitality, a welcome respite, and a spectacular reception area that will showcase breathtaking oceanfront views and a modern, updated space that blends seamlessly with the historic character of College Hall. This new welcome center will be the first thing visitors see when they come to Endicott, and the most memorable part of their experience here.”

This opening to an Institutional Advancement brochure encouraging alumni and external audiences to donate to a new welcome center works because it combines a reverential voice towards the reader with an emotional, optimistic, and forward-thinking voice about the project.

Example Two:

“Real-world experience and global opportunities are the foundation for launching a promising career, and we’ve been at the forefront of preparing students for professional careers since the college’s founding in 1939. Over four years, our students complete three distinct internships — and leave with a degree in one hand and an impressive resume in the other.”

This excerpt from an ad for Endicott in The Boston Globe successfully incorporates many of our key brand messages (internship, global opportunities) while referencing Endicott’s history without being boring—quite the opposite.

Example Three:

“What is a story without a quest? Our NCAA DIII Athletics boasts 21 varsity and six club teams, all continuing their quests to bring home another championship for Endicott! If it’s more of a personal fitness quest you’re seeking, we have a thriving intramural scene and recreational programs, including a range of classes and gym equipment at the Post Center. Whether you’re on the field, in the stands, or working out, you will feel the school spirit and Gull pride!”

This excerpt from a mail piece to prospective students fits with the theme of athletics: it’s as encouraging and fun as sports often are (and there are quite a few exclamation points), but it also packs in quite a bit of information. In other words, it’s not just fluff.

***

When crafting your communication, lead with the question: What’s the purpose of your communication? What does your audience need to learn? How should you best engage them?

• Explaining and providing information – be clear and concise.
• Telling a story – aim for emotional impact.
• Capturing attention – lead with an upfront hook.

Who’s your audience?

• Students & prospective students – Casual, fun, and lighthearted while still appropriate and well-mannered.
• Alumni – Casual and familial but respectful.
• Internal staff & faculty – Conversational, informative, witty.
• External university leaders, public officials, professionals – More formal, informative, and often purpose-driven, but never tedious or dull. Keep it conversational and interesting.

***

We've established that we'll always use the Endicott voice to communicate with our audiences—but tone allows us to adapt our voice to craft more nuanced messages while maximizing engagement and audience understanding.

Examples of Our Tone

Example One:

“Dear {{Prospective Student First Name}},

Don’t let “one of these days” become “none of these days”!

With our Early Action/Early Decision deadline approaching, what’s holding you back from submitting your application?

Our renowned faculty are experts in their fields and dedicated to empowering you with the knowledge you can apply immediately in your internships—plus, the average class size is 16.5 students for a personal learning experience.

Along with immersive internship opportunities designed to land you the career of your dreams, students of all majors are encouraged to study or intern abroad. And on campus, there’s never a shortage of things to do—from clubs and athletics to arts and volunteering. Our Gulls are dedicated to giving back to the community!

Speaking of community, Endicott is also just 30 minutes from Boston, a hub of world-class museums, shopping, restaurants, and nightlife.

Want our opinion? There’s no better place to be than the Nest.”

This application reminder email to a prospective student is a bit of a departure in that it is direct in its questioning (“What’s holding you back?”) and urgent (Don’t let ‘one of those days’ become ‘none of these days’), but also stays true to the informative and friendly Endicott voice while promoting several Endicott brand propositions.

Example Two:

For an Endicott student, there is no better feeling than walking into Callahan on a Saturday night. The reason? A chicken patty sandwich. Yes, our Gulls flock to the dining hall every weekend for what they’ve deemed ‘chicken patty Satty.’ After a long week of classes, this simple but satisfying sandwich is a reward—and it has come to represent an essential part of the Endicott experience.

In March, Callahan Dining Hall was blessed with the arrival of Sal’s Pizza, the brick-and-mortar pizzeria originally out of Boston’s North End. Now, with hundreds of options from Sal’s to EAT Café and more to come, we asked our students to narrow down their on-campus culinary favorites. It was a hard job, but someone had to do it.

This article for News at The Nest is written for a student audience, so it uses a lighthearted, funny tone to engage them. While our students are used to us having a casual tone, this piece goes further—drawing an almost absurd comparison between Callahan and fine dining.

Endicott inspires leadership through transformational learning—or what we call the Endicott Experiential Edge. Experience is the cornerstone of transformational learning, with our unique internship model and Global Gulls study abroad program helping to build the next generation of global-minded leaders.

These are some key experiences that set Endicott apart from other schools. We aim to weave these points into copy across all communication pieces without overshadowing a different primary message. So, for instance, if you are writing a story about our nursing program or putting together a marketing piece about the new Cummings School of Nursing & Health Sciences, that would be your primary message; however, the goal is to also weave into your story the larger Endicott brand pillar of transformational learning.

Below are key phrases and ideas you can consider using when writing your pieces:

Endicott’s internship program—what we call the Endicott Experiential Edge:

• Experience-powered learning is at the heart of what we do.
• Our students graduate with a degree in one hand and a resume in the other.
• Our unique internship model prepares graduates to be impactful from day one on the job.
• Multiple early internships allow students to test their career interests, make connections between the classroom and the workplace, and build a professional network.
• As students are equipped with top-tier education, skill sets honed through multiple internships, and other immersive real-world experiences, including our experiential classroom La Chanterelle, 99% of students graduate with a job. That’s the Endicott Experiential Edge.

Endicott’s Global Gulls Study Abroad Program:

• Studying or interning abroad expands horizons, fosters independence, and helps students see problem-solving through a global lens.
• Studying and interning abroad not only gives students a global perspective in the workplace, but it builds lasting friendships, confidence, and a deeper understanding of the world around them.
• From our sister campus in Madrid, Spain, to our partnership with MTU in Cork, Ireland, to sites all around the world, our students tell us that their study abroad experiences are nothing short of life-changing—that’s why more than 40% of Endicott students intern or study abroad.

Our Internship & Study Abroad programs (together):

• Endicott’s unique internship and study abroad programs give our students real-world experiences and global perspectives.
• Students gain work and global experience that will stand out to employers and give them a competitive edge in their job search.

Academics & Faculty:

• Our supportive, knowledgeable, and approachable faculty are invested in seeing students succeed and creating strong connections with students in and out of the classroom.
• Our faculty aren’t just experts in their field—many are world-renowned scholars, award-winning authors, and sought-after thought leaders who care deeply for their students.
• Unlike larger schools, Endicott’s small class sizes allow for more personal connections between students and faculty. Our students regularly tell us that here, they’re not just a number or a person in the crowd—but the professors know their names.
• Endicott’s academic programs allow students to explore what they’re interested in and care about, challenge and push themselves, and take ownership of their learning and future success.
