Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ Today submission guidelines

Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ Today is a daily email newsletter sent to staff, faculty and others in the community who sign up to receive it.

All submitted items must have a story or event to link to. For events, a calendar listing on the Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ Trumba calendar is sufficient. (This is the “permalink” at the bottom of the calendar item.)

Submitting an item

Please use to submit an item for Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ Today.

Depending on how much content we have in any given week, your item might not appear in the Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ Today email for 5 to 7 business days. Please let us know in the form’s “Any additional commentsâ€� section if there’s a news peg (an event, holiday, etc.) that makes your item more timely.

Content guidelines

The Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ Today newsletter is primarily focused on story-based content as opposed to program-based content, as well as events that have broad community interest and appeal. Due to the overwhelming number of alumni stories, we don’t typically include them in Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ Today. Please reach out to Karen Chilcote of Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµAA with your alumni stories.

Events

Events should be open to the public and either involve a Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ faculty member and/or be hosted by a unit on campus (virtual or in-person). Free events are preferred. When submitting an event, specify your “run-by” date as the date you wish the event to appear in the email. If you have an RSVP deadline, the run-by date should be before that.

Stories

Submissions can include stories by internal units or external news media. All stories must appeal to the broader campus community.

Internal

Internal stories typically live on a Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ unit’s website. These stories need a photo — horizontal is required (500×358 ratio preferred). For accessibility reasons, we don’t run photos with embedded text.

External

External stories are typically shared via the “IN THE NEWSâ€� section of the email, which highlights where Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ researchers are quoted in the media. These items must relate to the individual’s work here at the Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ and come from reputable news sources.

Editing

Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ News staff may edit your proposed headline for length, style and clarity. Photos might also be cropped or changed depending on available context. In rare cases, Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ News staff might reach out to ask for small revisions to your content (i.e. accessibility improvements, additional context for photos, etc.).
