Whether
providing information about programs or services, acknowledging
achievers and supporters, or inviting participants to a campus event,
your message is part of the total Southern University communications
effort. The Office of Publications and Electronic Media can package
your message, helping promote a consistent and positive university
image.
Established
in October 1992, the Office of Publications and Electronic Media
was formed through Title III, a federal granting source for developmental
programs at historically black colleges and universities. Our professional
staff assists university departments in producing effective publications
and electronic media programs.
Among
publications produced by this office are the SU
Insider (a newsletter for our faculty, staff, academic peers,
and external supporters); faculty/staff directories; university
facts brochures; viewbooks; annual reports; handbooks; course catalogs;
program booklets, and recruitment packages, including companion
brochures, folders, posters, and mailers.
The
director of publications and electronic media is designated to offer
guidelines that ensure uniform editorial and graphic standards in
university publications. The office provides copywriting, editing,
graphic design, and photography services.
To
ensure use of publications standards employed by publishers, public
relations specialists, and universities globally, we adhere to rules
provided by The Chicago Manual of Style. Revered by editors
and publishers since 1906, this manual, from the University of Chicago
Press, helps align your publication with standards advocated by
the Council for the Advancement and Support of Education (CASE)
and higher education boards of regents nationwide.
The
Office of Publications and Electronic Media operates under the auspices
of the Office of the Chancellor, advancing higher education programs
and public relations initiatives through production of supportive
media.
