Political Marketing: How Social Media Influenced The 2008-2016 U.S. Presidential Elections And Best Practices Associated, Morgan Swartley
Senior Honors Theses
Political marketing has become a growing facet of marketing that has infiltrated the campaigning of U.S. presidential elections. Within this cognate of marketing, social media has become a major component of predicting election outcomes starting with the 2008 U.S. presidential election.

As the centre of academic life at a university, the university library plays an important role in how students perceive their relationship with the university.

The hypotheses proposed in this study were found to be substantiated: following the library on social media is positively related to a student's perception of their relationship quality with the university; students interested in multiple library services are likely to report the perception of a higher quality relationship with the university.

The model is tested using data collected from …
