Publicity for Meetings and Events
Publicity is an important part of any organization. Without the proper publicity campaign, your organization's goals such as raising money, attracting new members, and providing a service or program will not be adequately met. An effective publicity program allows the reader to grasp all the important information in the quickest manner possible. Promotional material should be professional and communicate a specific message intended to evoke a response from the reader. Your publicity does not have to be extremely artistic, but graphics make for more eye-catching information.

Promotional Ideas
Registered student organizations are allowed to take advantage of all of the publicity & promotional ideas to increase awareness in their group events.

Writing Effective Press Releases
A press release (a proposed news article written by you) should be no more than one page in length. Only essential information should be conveyed. Press releases may be edited before being printed.
