Promoting your department’s events
To promote your event in the college newsletter, email Marcia Locke a short description and simple image (not text-heavy flyer) by the 20th of the month prior to the month you want it to appear. Newsletters go out during the first week of the month; so, if your event is in the first few days of a month, plan to promote it the month before.
Don’t forget to add your events to K-State’s event calendar on Localist. For your event to populate to the college’s event calendar and homepage, tag “Arts and Sciences, College of” in the “Departments” box.
