Sample Work HIGHER EDUCATION FOCUSED
Webster University According to the school’s administration, Webster University had not published an annual report or university report for many years. With Webster’s centennial fast approaching in 2015, the school engaged Falk Harrison to produce a printed Portfolio: Webster University and online university report that presented their unique offering: a global education with local connections, nearly unparalleled diversity, and a bold transformational experience for everyone involved. Falk Harrison designed a big and bold, high-production-value book, with gate-folds and French-Fold pages on environmentally friendly paper. The Web version is designed using Parallax Scrolling for ease of use, and for a layering of the image-rich content.

@WebsterU_Biz with @Jack: Twitter, the part-blog part e-mail social networking site, took off in 2009. Tweets bore witness to the swearing-in of Barack Obama as the first African-American U.S. president, they described outer space directly from astronauts in orbit and documented a revolution from the streets of Tehran. Twitter also made at MBA Webster University (@WebsterU) when creator and co-founder Jack Dorsey (@Jack) BOOK REVIEWSnews GLOBAL PROGRAM said “yes” to our tweet to speak on campus.

On 9/18/09 @Jack was named our Person of the Year, received the Keys to The City of #STL & threw out the first pitch at the Cards/Cubs game
So on Sept. 18 @WebsterU_Biz honored @Jack Dorsey, creator of #Twitter, as @WebsterU ‘s 2009 Person of The Year at one-of-a-kind TweetUp.
WebsterU_Biz @Jack also broke the news that his hometown of #STL would play a part in his next company being announced soon. True to his tease, the new mobile payment service #Square announced in December is now being used by businesses in #STL. Following his address @WebsterU and a luncheon with @Websterpres Beth Stroble, @Jack received the Keys to The City of #STL.
Hundreds on @WebsterU ‘s #STL home campus, thousands online and millions via #Twitter took in @Jack’s story. They learned how the #entrepreneur took his passion for innovation, and in 2006 built #Twitter in two weeks. Now users help rebuild it. “We learned a lot from #Twitter. A lot of what you see today is from the users; the @, the word #tweet and #retweet came from our users
MayorSlay Whereas @Jack founded @Twitter Whereas that’s a big deal Whereas Jack is ours Therefore I, @MayorSlay call 9/18/09 Jack Twitter Day in #STL. WebsterU_Biz The #STLCards then honored this notable innovator by putting @Jack on the mound for the first pitch of the #CardsCubs baseball game. The #STLCards ended up winning as did the world by getting a glimpse inside #Twitter through the man who made it happen
So we became really good listeners to how people were using this system and really good editors to reflect what they wanted,” @Jack said. “This work has inspired and distilled three concepts that I have dedicated my life to: immediacy, transparency and approachability. If you have immediacy you can inspire transparency because people become ‘of the moment’ and every word they write is valuable.”
Jack Thanks you WEBSTER! You are AWESOME!

State universities are increasingly affected by a lack of funding. Eastern Illinois University called upon alumnus and Falk Harrison creative director, Steve Hartman, to develop a brand platform for their first capital campaign. Along with a creative team of alumni, Falk Harrison collaborated with photographers, videographers, event planners and printers to build a campaign to meet EIU’s $50 million goal. The result is a branded campaign with a consistent message from initial invitation to a gala event on campus. From graphics, premiums and video produced for the event, to follow-up pieces including a case-statement brochure, school-specific mini-case brochures, a website and email newsletters, the campaign brought together many pieces under one branded look.

Many students enter as freshmen or transfer students with only the vaguest idea of what they want their education to be. They may know that they want to be an athlete or participate in student government or join a fraternity or sorority. But through courses and interactions with faculty, their minds are opened, their world expanded, and they achieve at levels they had never anticipated. Dawanzelle Hopson came to EIU on a football scholarship. As a Mathematics and Computer Science major, Dawan soon realized that his Mathematics preparation was not sufficient. But he was committed to Mathematics and the Mathematics faculty were committed to him. He completed his degree and enjoyed a successful football career as a Panther, starting as a wide receiver in his senior year. Following graduation, Dawan made the roster of the Rockford Raptors in the Arena League. However, when an injury that prevented him from
realizing his dream of making the NFL Dawan was armed with the Mathematics qualifications he achieved at EIU. He was hired as a programmer/analyst with Coventry Health Care in St. Louis. He wrote, in an email shortly after getting this job, “I leave the game with no regrets. ... The Math Department professors played a huge part in me getting this job.... I am very grateful to you for sticking in there with me when I had my rough patches.” Dawan’s experience is not unique. EIU faculty members are committed to excellent teaching which yields high achievement by students in their classrooms. Through advanced study and training, the faculty are experts in the Sciences, Social Sciences, Nursing, Communication Disorders and Sciences and Mathematics and Computer Science. They enthusiastically convey knowledge and skills to their students through innovative teaching strategies and techniques.
During her first semester at EIU, Rebecca Grove wandered into a Chemistry lab and knew that she had found her new passion. She was encouraged to work in the lab of Dr. Kraig Wheeler where she began to study crystal growth of organic compounds and viewing their atoms through X-ray diffraction. Her success in the lab and classroom, led to her national selection as a 2008-2009 Barry M. Goldwater Scholar. Rebecca is one of only 321 students in the country to be honored by this premier undergraduate award in science, engineering and math. Dr. Wheeler, her mentor stated, “It is rare that a brand new person in the lab has a major impact in your field, but Rebecca certainly has done that. She has just been unbelievably successful.” Rebecca knows that her success is due in part to the opportunity to participate in a lab as a freshman and to benefit from the knowledge and expertise of her mentor. She will pursue a Ph.D. in Chemistry and plans to teach
and continue research at a university. It is easy to imagine her as a professor who will be welcoming freshmen into her lab some day! Faculty mentored student research experiences like Rebecca’s are a distinction of the College of Sciences at EIU. The research environments provide students with insights into their disciplines beyond what they can attain in the classroom, while working with faculty mentors gain scientific knowledge and research skills. While solving real world problems, they learn to work collaboratively with their mentors and other student researchers. Unsurprisingly, students report that their personal and professional growth is profound; they are more confident, they are more independent, and they believe that their experiences at EIU are enhanced by these opportunities to work and collaborate with their faculty research mentors. Angela Beard was a student in Communication Disorders and Sciences
who loved the
discipline and was intrigued by the diversity of career choices available in the field, but she was having difficulty understanding the theories of communication processes and applying those to communication disorders in patients. A faculty member encouraged Angela to complete a summer internship, shadowing a speech-language pathologist in a hospital. There she could observe patients with communication disorders and see how speech-language pathologists use theory in the treatment and management of those disorders. Angela gained confidence during the internship by asking questions of the supervisors and became more actively engaged in the clinical setting. Her understanding of disorders and theories made more sense when she observed a professional working with patients. She returned to campus with a heightened enthusiasm for the field of speech-language pathology, but also with more confidence in herself and her ability to understand and apply the information she encountered in her courses. Angela has
gone on to complete a Masters degree and is enjoying a career as a speech-language pathologist. As Angela learned, student success at EIU extends well beyond the campus walls. We know that our students’ academic preparation is enhanced by the authentic experiences such as internships and interactions with professionals in working world. An array of internship and outreach opportunities are available for students in every major and program of study. Science professors accompany COS students to K-12 schools where they engage those students in the marvels of sciences. Social science students intern with a variety of professionals such as judges and city planners and with social service agencies. RN to BS Nursing students complete clinical experiences in community health facilities.

“e” is for enlivening a brand image, and that is what SIUE asked of Falk Harrison. Higher education continually demands more of its students, alumni and the private sector as funding sources become rarer and rarer. Falk Harrison assisted SIUE to compete successfully in the collegiate marketplace by elevating the brand image of a relatively young state institution, mirroring the standards of excellence expected of staff and students alike.
