Message Guidelines

• Messages must be of interest to a clear majority of the ed-college-announcements list, which includes faculty, staff, students, and some alumni and friends of the College. (Note that users can unsubscribe from this list.) If the announcement is only of interest to a smaller part of the college, such as a single department or only graduate students, please use a more specific mailing list for a College group. Contact the appropriate college department or communications@education.illinois.edu to determine an appropriate list.
• No solicitation - the college does not allow this list to be used for solicitation or advertising, except for fundraising efforts by College-affiliated professional and student groups, such as SAGE and the Office of Advancement.
• College events and announcements only - events must be sponsored by or affiliated with the College, a College-supported group (such as one of our student organizations), or a unit on campus who provides specific services to Education students (e.g. Education Library). Campus events are more appropriate for the campus-level E-Week.
• News and Features - News about our College should be publicized on our website, in newsletters, and on social networks. The Weekly@Education email is for our internal College community. If you have a news item to share, please send it to communications@education.illinois.edu. If you have an upcoming College event in your department or unit that you would like us to publicize, submit it online at http://go.education/illinois.edu/submit-event

The Communications Office reserves the right to edit each item for length and clarity or to request the submitter edit, or redirect messages to more targeted mailing lists. We all receive a lot of email, and we would like to utilize the College's mailing lists efficiently. The College of Education reserves the right to refuse any submitted message.
