We also set up a page, not an account as I mistakenly noted.  Just started this spring and have 21 "likes", we'll see how many we have after fall.

It may not be all that useful, and may be difficult to measure success.  However we've spent minimal time setting it up, and it takes very little time to post info (which also pushes to twitter) and, to paraphrase Kevin, throw some more mud at the wall and hope.

Did you actually setup an account or a page? If you setup an account,
do you realize that you're in violation of Facebook's acceptable use
policy? I have noticed that several groups have said that they have an
account, but technically there should only be pages created for
non-persons on Facebook. I think that as information technology
professionals we should be more sensitive to these kinds of issues and
more diligent in our compliance.
