Hundreds of decisions advancement professionals make each day are data-driven. When we are functioning at our most strategic, we use the significant data at our disposal to make informed decisions that will improve our institutional advancement outcomes. We bring these outcomes to life with the stories of impact we tell.

Milton Academy is the first independent school to win the CASE Sibley Magazine of the Year Award. Its themes and “flow” for readers, its marriage of words and design, and its people-centered storytelling make this publication a magazine with ambition.

Should there be any doubt that CASE member editorial teams are a creative bunch, just look at the 2022 Circle of Excellence Design/Cover category. It produced five gold winners, along with three silvers and a bronze. 

More than ever, higher education enrollment marketing professionals are targeting, segmenting, and personalizing their content. Winning 2022 entries had tailored messages to well-defined audiences such as low-income, high-achieving students; those who are undecided about a major; Spanish-speaking students; admitted students; nontraditional students seeking an online education; and parents. 

Joe Zappala and the Brown University advancement team took a strategic and fresh look at the process of submitting entries to the Circle of Excellence Awards program in 2022. They started by forming an awards working group.
