Social media and text messages are not the culprits of school e-mail avoidance. University departments, student organizations, and faculty advisors\u2019 e-mails are most likely to be avoided. Social media users can be categorized as either \u201cinstant communicators\u201d or \u201conline content curators.\u201d Facebook is the only social media brand conducive to campus involvement.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec>\n<jats:title content-type=\"abstract-subheading\">Research limitations\/implications<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>This study only used one university\u2019s students as sample. In examining school e-mail avoidance, it only focused on the source of e-mail. The study is limited by its sole reliance on quantitative behavioral data.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec>\n<jats:title content-type=\"abstract-subheading\">Practical implications<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>University administrators and academic advisors need to reconsider the e-mail communication to students, target at the instant communicator social media users, and use Facebook to create a strong sense of community and campus involvement for their students. Marketers can utilize the two social media user groups in selecting social media in targeting to students.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec>\n<jats:title content-type=\"abstract-subheading\">Originality\/value<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>The study offered empirical evidence to explain how social media affect students\u2019 school e-mail avoidance and the role of campus media and specific social media outlet on campus involvement.
