Publicity Request Form

A press release is free; an ad is not. (» View ad prices)
To get either one, please get in touch with us in time for the free publicity a release can generate, or to make sure you make the deadline for a paid ad.
The publicity process isn't always smooth, and we need complete information from you to get the word out effectively. You must make separate requests for ads and press releases. Requesting an ad doesn't guarantee a press release; requesting a press release doesn't guarantee an ad.
The more complete and timely your information is, the better the publicity. Answer these questions: Who, What, When, Where, and How.
Please type carefully. If you misspell any information, it may go out that way.
If you do not receive an e-mail within 24 hours confirming your request, please call Vinnie Cazzetta at 341-4726.
Please send your information three weeks in advance of the actual event. Institutional Advancement requires at least a week to process your request, and the newspapers and radio stations request the information at least two weeks ahead of time. BUT NOT MORE THAN ONE MONTH in ADVANCE.
