Celebrate student achievements

Have your students demonstrated leadership with a project? Have they landed great internships? Have they been selected for special honors? These achievements are worth noting, and Manchester has a place for that. Check out our Merit pages. Send your information to stories@manchester.edu and put "Student Achievement" in the subject line. Students workers and interns might help format these for use, so please keep submissions brief and to the point.

Share your news

We’ll coordinate with each other to disseminate your news in the most effective ways we can, which may include MU Today, social media, press releases and newsletters.If you want a press release, start with this form.

Events calendar prevents scheduling conflicts

There's nothing like planning an event, only to find out there is a competing event at the same time. To help prevent scheduling conflicts, add your event to the Manchester University online calendar, click here, look for the SUBMIT AN EVENT button and fill in your information. An email then goes to a member of the communications team, who will complete the update. It’s easy! Because details for an event might change between the time it is submitted and the actual event, please send any changes to stories@manchester.edu and put "Calendar Change" in the subject line. 

Writing for MU?

We ask those who write for University publications, the website and other nonacademic material to follow The Manchester Style. Although the guide is not comprehensive, it does include terms and names unique to Manchester. It also addresses punctuation and Athletics guidelines. With intentional use, these guideline help tell the One Manchester story in a consistent way.
