1st Campaign
Pass to Class
A brief description of the campaign, including how students and/or employees were engaged:
Pass to Class, our free bus service to credit and GED students has been underutilized. As part of a sustainability strategy to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, reduce the need for additional parking stalls, and to encourage the use of public transportation the Office of Campus Planning & Sustainability coordinated with Marketing to develop strategies to raise awareness of the service and to increase ridership.
A brief description of the measured positive impact(s) of the campaign:
MCC Marketing launched a campaign aimed at increasing awareness and use of MCC's Pass to Class program by current and prospective students. A number of tactics were deployed including: palm cards, in-transit signage, outdoor advertising, on-campus digital signage and an internal email campaign aimed at enrollment specialists and advisors to mention the program to students as a viable transportation option. The campaign launched at Omaha's Earth Day celebration with a major push to let the public as well as students know about the program.
As a result, visits to the program's web page have increased by 325% since campaign inception. As the campaign moves towards the year mark, we will see how ridership increases in the spring and summer seasons. Awareness of the program, passes issued and site traffic have all seen increases as a result of this integrated campaign.
