Beginning the Publicity Process
- Review the publicity package options below, and submit a Publicity Request Form to begin the process with our team.
It will be important to identify your project goals, ideal student audience(s) and visual direction during the submission process. - We will review your request and follow up, either to request additional information or to set up a meeting with our creative team.
- A publicity timeline will be established, and the design/marketing process will begin. You can expect communications from the staff assigned to your project throughout the process. If you opt for the Media Buzz package, posters are distributed about 2 weeks prior to your event (on a space available basis across campus).
- Event promotion begins!
