Don't Change
Because your profile image is such an important part of your unit's online ID, it's important that it remains consistent. That's why we recommend that your profile image should rarely (if ever) change.
Your avatar, or profile image, is your visual calling card. We create avatars for university-affiliated accounts so searchers can see that you're part of the University of South Carolina.
Your image is one of the most important aspects of your platform profile. It's how a searcher can recognize (1) that you're part of the University of South Carolina and (2) that you're you. Because they're so important to our university and our affiliated accounts, the Division of Communications and Marketing provides university-wide support for social media profile images.
