Keeping you informed

The JCSU Newsletter is distributed every Tuesday. This approach prevents excessive email “spamming” to the University community and ensures that high-priority communications reach the intended audience. Campus announcements are for the ǿ޴ý campus or JCSU-sponsored activities and events only. Occasionally, announcements may provide information from partners if the information is related to campus constituents.

The University Communications and Marketing department has final discretion to determine JCSU News content and posting dates. Items may be submitted by current faculty, staff or students, or their respective campus departments, offices, committees or clubs using a JCSU e-mail address.

To submit content for JCSU News, please adhere to the following guidelines:

  • If submitting a flyer, you must follow the JCSU brand guidelines as closely as possible. If the flyer contains a QR code, you must include the link in the body of the email.
  • If you don’t have a flyer, submit a brief announcement using Microsoft Word to news@jcsu.edu.
  • Do not include special characters, and be sure titles and names are spelled correctly.
  • Spell out acronyms.
  • Do not insert hyperlinks. Instead, type the URL you want linked.

All submissions must be sent to News@jcsu.edu by 5 p.m. the Friday before you want the information to go out

Student messages must be approved by the department head and be applicable to a broad group of faculty, staff and/or students. Information about events open only to select groups of faculty, staff or students generally will not be posted.

Photos: Images pertinent to the announcement may be included. Clip Art files will generally not be used. Please note that the preferable format for documents is Microsoft Word instead of Microsoft Publisher or Microsoft PowerPoint.

These are general guidelines. Other conditions may apply.

JCSU Eblast Information

In some cases, a one-time eblast is appropriate. These should be submitted to news@jcsu.edu. Final discretion about what announcements can be sent separately will be left to the UCM Team. Please include the following information:

  • A short subject line.
  • The e-mail address and phone number of the person to contact for more information.
  • Please use complete sentences.
  • Indicate who the event is open to.
  • If you are submitting news about an event, please include the time, day, date and location; including specific building and room number (Do not use abbreviations or informal building names).
  • What department this information is being sent on behalf of

Submissions with incomplete information will not be sent. Announcements of sudden or last-minute events or changes to events will be handled case by case.
