She is also on the Dubs committee. She was one of the people who helped find a home for Dubs II before it officially became the Huskies mascot.
Rachael also likes candy and exercising. Hth.
Be nice.
@Crawfish, I don’t know if you’re trying to be funny or attempting to whoosh us, but I’ll assume you’re being serious because I am nice...
No one is saying she’s unqualified for her job. I’m sure she’s done some good things for the department...BUT YOU DON’T HAVE (and yes I’m busting out the @Dennis_DeYoung all caps of anger here) ANYTHING PROMOTING YOUR COMPETITION IN SOCIAL MEDIA POSTS! She works for UW! She relinquished her right in to give Oregon FREE PUB! in any of her professional Twitter accounts.
I bet Chevy wouldn’t want their CEO throwing #BuiltFordTough on their Twitter feed.

Can we just ask her nicely to remove the goducks hashtag? Why are you guys trying to get her fired. She seems like a nice person.
The name of the game is marketing and you want to keep someone who thinks it's a good idea to list 2 other schools (one is a rival) on her social media account? Dare I say...bad for our brand?
What the fuck are they teaching at Middlebury these days? Compassion for losers who don't get it?
my take on this is that first, like all of you, this is just a fucking insult to our own brand and it comes from inside our own team.
second, from a marketing perspective you can actually do this. It's done successfully in the business world in fact....these types of businesses are called DOLLAR STORES. They basically sell anyone's shit and they don't care about any one person's particular brand or product as long as they get a transaction out of it.
Does our marketing department want the UW brand to be in a Dollar Store?
Maybe...maybe they do; maybe they don't but they just don't care enough to get the details right. Or maybe they took marketing at Oregon (Hi Rachael) and just didn't learn that strategy is the second part of marketing.
What is clear though is that the UW marketing department and people like Rachael don't have any interest in elevating our brand to stand for something. It's just "my job is to show up 9-5 Monday-Friday and pump out some appropriate social media and then done." and then on Saturday they are cheering for the Auburn Eagles or #WashingtonFlock.
It's unacceptable to me.....but hey, Jen Cohen met Don James right? I guess that's the extent of pursuing excellence.
I wonder how many hours Rachael would last with that bullshit on her profile if she worked for any other blue blood...5 minutes? 2 days? Never mine, it was a rhetorical question because Washington doesn't give a shit. We're so caught up in this inclusion narrative that we are probably fucking proud to say that we employ Duck fans and let them be who they want to be during the work.
Swoosh life...fucking hell...right after Cohen negotiates a big motherfucking contract with Adidas, you have a staffer still promoting the swoosh...el oh el.

This is a great post
This is also the only place outside of twitter that gives a shit
I assume doogman is downplaying and defending it because they have done that for 20 years of bullshit
Looks to me like she lists her previous employers on her account (Oregon, Auburn, Nike). Also looks like it's her personal, not her work, twitter.
Imagine getting upset over something like this. The Oregon AD guys openly root for the schools they used to work for on Twitter. Honestly who gives a fuck.

She used it to comment on the Alaska Airlines seats- a UW related post.
If she wants to have all that stuff on her personal account, fine, take the job title off. Or say Oregon [class year] or Auburn [class year]. Using hashtags like that is bad optics that conflict with her current employment. It also shows she has zero clue about how UW fans would react- and she is in charge of FAN ENGAGEMENT AT UW
Want a personal Twitter, fine. Just make sure to separate the two. If you work in sports your employer is who you are a fan of.

Even though you are a duck your post is perfect for doogman
They never found a bad idea that they couldn't defend
It started with her wanting black seats as the UW continues to destroy the purple brand for the 1990's everything needs to be black LA Raiders hip hop the kids love it scene
We could be the Xtreme Huskies because having X in the title makes for more viewers

Precisely. Anyone with a degree in marketing or business should understand this. Again, if Ms. Doyle wants to quook it up in her personal time, good for her - she’s a UO alum after all. I also have no issues with her listing her Auburn or Oregon gigs...Jen Cohen worked at other schools before coming to UW (PLU and Texas Tech), but you don’t see her with #GoRedRaiders on her Twitter. (Not the fairest of comparisons I realize, but I think my point is valid.)
I don’t want this woman fired, but I think it’s a “learning opportunity” (to use corporate jargon), and it’s little details like this that while not maybe big in some people’s eyes, matter to passionate fans, who are at the end of the day who the athletic department should pay attention to.

Maybe we could drill down on this some more and circle back to see if we can find a consensus and do some team building while we are at it
