Universities Leading in AI with Tina Miller + Erica Colaianne
Upstate, May 2026 - Tina Miller (Arizona State University) sits down with Erica Colaianne (University of Michigan) to talk AI adoption in higher ed marketing and communications. Two major universities, two different paths to the same challenge: how do you lead in AI rather than play catch-up?
They dig into what surprised them most about rolling out AI tools, the use cases that actually moved the needle (like ASU's Language Buddy and Michigan's social listening upgrades), where they hit resistance, and what they'd tell any institution just getting started.
If you work in higher ed marcomm and you're wondering how to stop waiting for permission, this one's for you.
