It's one project among many around the state that is helping to reconnect children to the outdoors.

The one above sounds great if you are going to give money or support the university but as an external campaign it does not allow the reader/viewer/student to participate in the brand. It needs a verb. An example would be of a message that does this might be "create a better world" or "touch lives" - i recognize that this is more for a prospective student however. Great blog!

A focus on specific NC State research and programs that have real, measurable, and practical applications and near-term benefits in the daily lives of tax paying citizens is a great way to promote NC State's vital role. One background thought for the Health & Well-Being initiative, the CDC estimates that 70 to 75% of all human infectious diseases are zoonotic in origin. The AMA has now joined the AVMA in the One Health approach, recognizing that veterinarians and veterinary researchers are on the front lines in the global public health battle. NC State is a leader in comparative medicine and translational biomedical research--the "bench to bedside" notion.
